How far apart are Dubai and Lima?

Lima (Peru) runs 9 hours behind Dubai (United Arab Emirates). In practical terms, the working day in Lima starts while Dubai 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 Dubai and Lima 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

The difference shown here reflects the current offset between Dubai and Lima. Because regions switch to and from daylight saving on different dates — and some do not observe it at all — the gap can move by an hour for a few weeks each spring and autumn. If you are booking something months ahead, it is worth re-checking close to the date.
