São Paulo is 4 hours ahead of Seattle

Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM in Seattle is 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM in São Paulo.

Keep meetings inside 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM in Seattle — that maps to 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM in São Paulo. Despite the 4-hour difference, a 6-hour overlap keeps things simple and gives both teams breathing room. Keep an eye on the calendar — Seattle observes daylight saving and São Paulo doesn't, which nudges this window by an hour twice a year.
