Time difference between Denver and Hong Kong
Hong Kong is 14 hours ahead of Denver
Denver, the United States is UTC−7 · Hong Kong, Hong Kong is UTC+8 — on standard time
The gap is not the same all year
Every converter gives one number for this pair. That number is right for most of the year and wrong for part of it, because Denver goes forward on the second Sunday in March and back on the first Sunday in November and Hong Kong does not change its clocks.
| Denver / Hong Kong clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| summer / standard | 14 hours ahead | about 34 weeks — most of the year |
| standard / standard | 15 hours ahead | about 18 weeks |
Hong Kong stays put all year while Denver moves, so a meeting fixed in Hong Kong's calendar shifts by an hour twice a year at Denver's end.
When they can both be at their desks
Nine-to-five in Denver and nine-to-five in Hong Kong do not overlap at all. With 14 hours between them, one side is always outside working hours, and the practical question is which side takes the early start or the late finish rather than when to meet.
