Beijing is 15 hours ahead of Vancouver

Best overlap: 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Vancouver is 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Beijing.

Book within 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM Vancouver time (8:00 AM to 9:00 AM in Beijing) and both teams will be at work. Overlap is at a premium — roughly 1 hour — so claim 5:00 PM in Vancouver (8:00 AM in Beijing) for recurring calls and keep them on time. Because of the gap, Beijing is already on the next day, so confirm you're both talking about the same calendar date. Seasonal note: Vancouver uses daylight saving and Beijing doesn't, so double-check the times in your own months — they can move by an hour.
