Best Time to Call Madagascar from Portugal
When calling internationally, it's important to consider time zone differences to ensure you're calling at a convenient time.
Time Zone in Portugal:
WET/WEST (UTC+0/+1)
Time Zone in Madagascar:
EAT (UTC+3)
Consider business hours (9am-5pm) in Madagascar for business calls. For personal calls, evenings and weekends are usually best, avoiding very late hours.
Portugal operates on Western European Time (UTC+0, or UTC+1 during daylight saving from late March to late October), making it ideal to call during their business hours of 9 AM-6 PM, which translates to early morning if you're in the Americas or evening if you're in Asia or Australia. Keep in mind that Portugal follows EU daylight saving rules, so always verify the current time difference during the transition periods in March and October to avoid calling too early or late. Madagascar operates on East Africa Time (UTC+3) year-round with no daylight saving time changes. For optimal calling times, contact during Madagascar's business hours of 8 AM to 5 PM (which corresponds to 5 AM to 2 PM UTC), and remember that the country is consistently 3 hours ahead of UTC regardless of the season.
