Best Time to Call Japan from Canada

When calling internationally, it's important to consider time zone differences to ensure you're calling at a convenient time.

Time Zone in Canada:

Multiple (UTC−3.5 to −8)

Time Zone in Japan:

JST (UTC+9)

Consider business hours (9am-5pm) in Japan for business calls. For personal calls, evenings and weekends are usually best, avoiding very late hours.

Canada spans six time zones from UTC-5 (Eastern) to UTC-8 (Pacific), so check your recipient's specific province before calling—for example, Toronto is UTC-5 while Vancouver is UTC-8, creating a 3-hour difference across the country. The best time to reach most Canadians for business calls is between 9 AM-5 PM in their local time on weekdays, and remember that most of Canada observes Daylight Saving Time from mid-March to early November, shifting to UTC-4 through UTC-7 during those months. Japan operates on Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) year-round with no daylight saving time changes. For the best chance of reaching someone during business hours (9 AM-6 PM JST), call between 5 PM-2 AM UTC the previous day, and remember that Japan is typically 13-17 hours ahead of US time zones depending on your location and DST observance.
