Munich is 5 hours ahead of São Paulo
Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM in São Paulo is 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Munich.
Plan around 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM in São Paulo, which is 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Munich, to catch everyone during office hours. Munich is 5 hours ahead of São Paulo, so the practical overlap is about 5 hours — generous enough for meetings, tight enough to be worth booking ahead. For part of the year the maths changes: Munich observes daylight saving, São Paulo does not, shifting the overlap by an hour.
