How far apart are Bangkok and Los Angeles?
Los Angeles (United States) runs 14 hours behind Bangkok (Thailand). In practical terms, the working day in Los Angeles starts while Bangkok is already well into the afternoon or evening, which is what makes scheduling between the two take a little planning.
Best time to schedule a call or meeting
Standard working hours in Bangkok and Los Angeles barely overlap, so a live call usually means one side joining early in the morning or late in the evening. The least disruptive option is to catch the very start or end of one city’s working day, or to handle things asynchronously.
A note on daylight saving
Los Angeles observes daylight saving but Bangkok does not, so the gap between them changes by an hour for part of the year. The 14 hours shown here is the current offset; expect it to shift around the daylight-saving changeovers (typically late March and late October in the Northern Hemisphere).
