Frequently asked questions
What is the time difference between Hanoi and Washington DC?
Hanoi is 11 hours ahead of Washington DC: UTC+7 versus UTC-4. Both figures include any daylight saving currently in force.
What is the best time to call from Hanoi to Washington DC?
There is no hour that is comfortable for both. If the meeting is unavoidable, the least-bad options are the edges of each side's day — late morning in Hanoi or early morning in Washington DC — and the burden should be explicit rather than assumed.
Is there any way to make Hanoi–Washington DC meetings work?
Not through scheduling. With no overlap, the workable options are async written handoffs, recorded updates, or splitting coverage into two regional pods so that each pod works its own daylight hours.
