Best Time to Call Japan from New Zealand

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

Time Zone in New Zealand:

NZST/NZDT (UTC+12/+13)

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.

When calling New Zealand, remember they operate on UTC+12 (NZST) or UTC+13 (NZDT during daylight saving from late September to early April), making them one of the first countries to start each day. For best results, call during New Zealand business hours (9 AM-5 PM local time), which means late evening or nighttime the previous calendar day for most of the Americas, and early morning for Europe. 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.
