When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Kuala Lumpur and Brasília don't overlap on the same weekday. Brasília is 11 hours behind Kuala Lumpur.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 6 PM–8 PM in Kuala Lumpur (7 AM–9 AM in Brasília) — suggest 7:00 PM Kuala Lumpur (8:00 AM Brasília).
This means an early start or late finish for one side, but it’s a reasonable slot for a one-off meeting.
Public holidays in 2026
National public holidays can affect availability — a counterpart is likely off work on their own holidays, so it's worth planning meetings and deadlines around them.
