When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Quito and Hong Kong don't overlap on the same weekday. Hong Kong is 13 hours ahead of Quito.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 6 PM–8 PM in Quito (7 AM–9 AM the next day in Hong Kong) — suggest 7:00 PM Quito (8:00 AM Hong Kong).
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.
