How the gap works

The gap is not constant. Because Toronto changes its clocks for daylight saving time and Singapore does not, the difference becomes 13 hours for part of the year. The live section above shows the exact gap right now and when it next changes.

  • Toronto (Canada) is in the America/Toronto time zone: UTC-5 (EST) or UTC-4 (EDT).
  • Singapore (Singapore) is in the Asia/Singapore time zone: UTC+8.

Best time to call or meet

Toronto and Singapore have no overlap in standard 9-to-5 working hours, so one side needs to start early or finish late. If you stretch the day to 7 AM to 10 PM in both cities, the shared window is 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM in Toronto (7:00 PM to 10:00 PM in Singapore).

The best time to call is around 8:30 AM in Toronto (8:30 PM in Singapore). That time falls outside standard 9-to-5 hours in at least one city. These times use the usual gap; for a few weeks each year, shift them by the difference noted above.
