Comparing Time Zones: Denmark and Bangkok

Denmark runs on Central European Summer Time (CEST) at UTC+02:00, currently observing daylight saving time. Bangkok runs on Indochina Time (ICT) at UTC+07:00. That puts Denmark 5 hours ahead of Bangkok — a difference of +5h at the current offsets.

In practice, when it is 9:00 AM in Denmark it is 2:00 PM in Bangkok. Midnight in Denmark is 5:00 AM in Bangkok.Denmark observes daylight saving time while Bangkok does not, so the gap narrows or widens by an hour part of the year.

Why people convert Denmark to Bangkok time

Scheduling a call from Denmark to Bangkok: a 10:00 AM start in Denmark lands at 3:00 PM in Bangkok, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Denmark and Bangkok are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM CEST time (2:00 PM–5:00 PM ICT). That is roughly 3 hours of usable overlap.
Keeping family and friends in sync: knowing that 8:00 PM in Denmark is 1:00 AM in Bangkok makes it easy to avoid calling at 3 AM.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM CEST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +5h gap is not.
Block 9:00 AM–12:00 PM CEST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from Denmark and need Bangkok colleagues present.
Denmark: Clocks fall back on Sun, Oct 25, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the +5h gap.

About CET (Central European Time)

Central European Time (CET) is the standard time zone for most of Europe, covering over 30 countries from Spain to Poland, and from Norway to Italy.

About ICT (Indochina Time)

Business hours overlap
