Time difference between Lima and Bangkok

Bangkok is 12 hours ahead of Lima

Lima, Peru is UTC−5 · Bangkok, Thailand is UTC+7 — on standard time

The gap holds all year

Neither city changes its clocks — Lima does not change its clocks and Bangkok does not change its clocks — so 12 hours is the difference in January and in July alike. That is worth knowing about this pair specifically, because most international pairs do move and a recurring meeting between them does not need checking twice a year.

When they can both be at their desks

Nine-to-five in Lima and nine-to-five in Bangkok do not overlap at all. With 12 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.
