Why people convert Iran to BRT time

Scheduling a call from Iran to BRT: a 10:00 AM start in Iran lands at 3:30 AM in BRT, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
Finding shared working hours: both Iran and BRT are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 3:30 PM and 5:00 PM IRST time (9:00 AM–10:30 AM BRT). That is roughly 1 hours 30 minutes of usable overlap.
Watching a live event or market open: Iran viewers need 2:30 AM in BRT to catch a 9:00 AM start there, and 6:30 AM if the event is anchored to Iran.

Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM IRST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a -6h 30m gap is not.
Block 3:30 PM–5:00 PM IRST as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from Iran and need BRT colleagues present.

About BRT (Brasilia Time)
