Ever wondered what time it is in Bangkok when your friend in Singapore is calling? Fear not, the answer is simple!
Singapore is 1 hour ahead of Bangkok, Thailand. This means that when it’s 4:00 pm in Bangkok, it’s already 5:00 pm in Singapore.
The reason for this difference is because Thailand and Singapore are located in different time zones. Thailand observes Indochina Time (ICT), whereas Singapore adheres to Singapore Standard Time (SGT).
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Bangkok, Thailand: ICT (UTC+7)
- Singapore: SGT (UTC+8)
Knowing this time difference can be crucial for:
- Coordinating calls and meetings between people in both cities.
- Booking flights that arrive at a convenient time.
- Following live events happening in either location.
For your convenience, since you’re currently in Germany (CEST, UTC+2), here’s a comparison of the time difference with both Bangkok and Singapore:
- Germany (CEST): Thursday, July 4, 2024, 11:00 CEST (UTC+2)
- Bangkok, Thailand: Thursday, July 4, 2024, 4:00 PM ICT (UTC+7) – 5 hours ahead of Germany
- Singapore: Thursday, July 4, 2024, 5:00 PM SGT (UTC+8) – 6 hours ahead of Germany
So next time you’re planning something between Bangkok and Singapore, remember the handy 1-hour time difference!
