Time difference between Melbourne and São Paulo

São Paulo is 13 hours behind Melbourne

Melbourne, Australia is UTC+10 · São Paulo, Brazil is UTC−3 — 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 Melbourne goes forward on the first Sunday in October and back on the first Sunday in April and São Paulo does not change its clocks.

São Paulo stays put all year while Melbourne moves, so a meeting fixed in São Paulo's calendar shifts by an hour twice a year at Melbourne's end.

When they can both be at their desks

Nine-to-five in Melbourne and nine-to-five in São Paulo do not overlap at all. With 13 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.
