Washington, D.C. is 12 hours behind Hong Kong

There is no standard 8-to-6 overlap. Someone joins early or late.

With 12 hours between them, Hong Kong and Washington, D.C. have no overlap during standard business hours — by the time one team logs on, the other has logged off. The usual fix is an early start for Washington, D.C. or a late finish for Hong Kong — pick whichever team has more flexibility. One seasonal catch: Washington, D.C. springs forward and falls back, but Hong Kong doesn't, so the gap changes by an hour for several months of the year.
