Time difference between Paris and Brisbane
Brisbane is 8 hours ahead of Paris
Paris, France is UTC+1 · Brisbane, Australia is UTC+10 — 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 Paris goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October and Brisbane does not change its clocks.
| Paris / Brisbane clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| summer / standard | 8 hours ahead | about 30 weeks |
| standard / standard | 9 hours ahead | about 22 weeks |
Brisbane stays put all year while Paris moves, so a meeting fixed in Brisbane's calendar shifts by an hour twice a year at Paris's end.
When they can both be at their desks
Nine-to-five in Paris and nine-to-five in Brisbane do not overlap at all. With 8 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.
