Why people convert Copenhagen to SGT time

Scheduling a call from Copenhagen to SGT: a 10:00 AM start in Copenhagen lands at 4:00 PM in SGT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Copenhagen and SGT are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM CEST time (3:00 PM–5:00 PM SGT). That is roughly 2 hours of usable overlap.
Coordinating a Copenhagen-based team with SGT contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM CEST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +6h gap is not.
Block 9:00 AM–11:00 AM CEST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from Copenhagen and need SGT colleagues present.
Copenhagen: Clocks fall back on Sun, Oct 25, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the +6h gap.
