Time Difference Between Lagos and Mexico City

How far apart are Lagos and Mexico City?

Mexico City (Mexico) runs 7 hours behind Lagos (Nigeria). In practical terms, the working day in Mexico City starts while Lagos 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

The comfortable window — when both cities are inside normal 9-to-5 hours — runs from about 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM in Lagos time, roughly 1 hour. Schedule calls inside that band and neither side is working unsocial hours.

A note on daylight saving

The difference shown here reflects the current offset between Lagos and Mexico City. 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.
