Three numbers. The ones that decide the meeting.
When the world meets at work.
Read the day in both zones.
Crossing the border. Money, language, plugs.
Money changes hands at the border: Khartoum uses the SDG (ج.س) and Maputo uses the MZN (MT). Language shifts too — Arabic in Khartoum, Portuguese in Maputo. Be careful behind the wheel: Khartoum drives on the right, Maputo on the left.

Quick answers. Before you book the call.
What's the time difference between Khartoum and Maputo?
Khartoum and Maputo share the same offset (GMT+2), so there's no difference right now.
When's the best time to schedule a meeting?
There are 8 hours where both cities are inside a 09:00–17:00 workday. Aim for the middle of that window so neither side is starting or closing out.
Does daylight saving time change the difference?
Yes, if either city observes DST. When one side shifts and the other doesn't, the gap changes by one hour. The DST badges under each clock show whether each zone is currently shifted and when the next transition lands.
How far is Khartoum from Maputo?
About 4,611 km as the crow flies (great-circle distance). A non-stop commercial flight cruises that in roughly 5h 55m, not counting airport time, winds, or routing around restricted airspace.

What currency do Khartoum and Maputo use?
Khartoum uses the Sudanese pound (SDG, ج.س); Maputo uses the Mozambican metical (MZN, MT). Check the live rate before transferring money or paying with a card abroad — most banks add a 1–3 % FX margin on top of the mid-market rate.

What language is spoken in Khartoum and Maputo?
Khartoum primarily speaks Arabic, English; Maputo speaks Portuguese. English is widely used in business contexts in major cities of both, but written contracts may need translation.

No. Sudan drives on the right, Mozambique on the left. If you're renting, expect a learning curve on the first day — especially at roundabouts and when judging the centre of the lane.
