About the Ho Chi Minh City-London gap

Ho Chi Minh City sits in the Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh time zone (UTC+7), while London uses Europe/London (BST). That puts London 6 hours behind of Ho Chi Minh City right now.

These two cities do not handle daylight saving the same way, one adjusts its clocks seasonally and the other does not. The difference between them therefore moves by an hour twice a year, which is a common cause of missed meetings. The clocks above always show the live position rather than an assumed offset.

For scheduling, the practical overlap runs from 15:00 to 17:00 in Ho Chi Minh City. Booking inside that band means neither party is dialling in before breakfast or after dinner.
