What's the time difference between Tegucigalpa and Chiang Mai?
Tegucigalpa is 13 hours ahead of Chiang Mai. Tegucigalpa runs on GMT-6 and Chiang Mai on GMT+7. The gap can shift by an hour when either side enters or leaves daylight saving — the live clocks above always reflect the current offset.
When's the best time to schedule a meeting?
Standard 09:00–17:00 workdays don't intersect. Most teams compromise with one side meeting early (before 09:00) or late (after 17:00).
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.
