Open Meeting Planner →Both cities run on finance, so most calls between Tokyo and Dubai are between people in the same trade. Put simply, when it is 09:00 in Dubai it is already 5 hours later in Tokyo.
The working week is Monday to Friday on both sides: roughly 09:00–18:00 in Tokyo and 08:30–17:30 in Dubai. Watch for Golden Week (29 April to 5 May) and Obon (around 13–16 August) in Tokyo and Eid al-Fitr (end of Ramadan, about 11 days earlier each year) and Eid al-Adha (roughly 70 days after Eid al-Fitr) in Dubai. Replies slow in Tokyo during Golden Week and the year-end break and in Dubai during Ramadan, when office hours are shortened by law.
The comfortable window is 14:00–17:00 Tokyo time, which is 09:00–12:00 in Dubai — 3 shared office hours, enough that nobody has to stretch. Neither city observes daylight saving, so the gap holds all year.
Tokyo is 5 hours ahead of Dubai. The gap is the same all year.
14:00–17:00 Tokyo time, which is 09:00–12:00 in Dubai — the 3-hour stretch when both are inside 09:00–17:00.
No. Neither city observes daylight saving, so the difference never changes.
The ones that most often surprise the other side are Golden Week (29 April to 5 May) and Obon (around 13–16 August) in Tokyo and Eid al-Fitr (end of Ramadan, about 11 days earlier each year) and Eid al-Adha (roughly 70 days after Eid al-Fitr) in Dubai.
