Open world clockWorking with Kathmandu
What you need to know before scheduling something with Kathmandu — when the clocks move, which days are the weekend, and when the working day overlaps with yours.
Daylight saving
Kathmandu does not observe daylight saving time. The offset from UTC stays the same all year, so the gap between you and Kathmandu changes whenever your clocks move, not theirs.
Kathmandu runs on a 45-minute offset from the hour — one of a small number of zones worldwide that does.
The working week
In Nepal the weekend is Saturday, and the working week runs Sunday to Friday. Scheduling a Monday call is fine; scheduling a Friday one often is not.
