Time difference between Lisbon and Istanbul

Istanbul is 2 hours ahead of Lisbon. Put the other way round: Lisbon is 2 hours behind Istanbul.

Lisbon is UTC+1 in summer and UTC in winter; Istanbul is UTC+3 and UTC+3.

When you can both be at your desks

Working 09:00 to 17:00 in both cities leaves 6 hours in common: 09:00 to 15:00 in Lisbon, which is 11:00 to 17:00 in Istanbul. Those are the hours to aim a call at.

Daylight saving

Lisbon changes its clocks for summer and Istanbul does not, so there is no single answer: the gap is 2 hours for the northern summer and 3 hours for the rest of the year.

Plan a meeting across more than two cities

This page covers one pair. TimeGap takes a list: add every city you care about, drag one marker, and every row reads the same instant on its own clock. It marks the hours you would actually take a call, finds the window where the most people are reachable, flags public holidays, and puts the time you pick straight into Outlook or Google Calendar.
