When to schedule

Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Venezuela Time and Gulf Standard Time don't overlap on the same weekday. Gulf Standard Time is 8 hours ahead of Venezuela Time.

With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:

  • 7 AM–12 PM in Venezuela Time (3 PM–8 PM in Gulf Standard Time) — suggest 9:00 AM Venezuela Time (5:00 PM Gulf Standard Time).

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.
