Best time for a call
If both sides work 9:00–18:00 local time, the shared window is 10:00–18:00 in Moscow = 09:00–17:00 in Chisinau (8 hours) in January and 09:00–18:00 in Moscow = 09:00–18:00 in Chisinau (9 hours) in July. Put recurring calls in this window and state the time with the city name (for example “14:00 Moscow time”) to avoid confusion. How to schedule a meeting across time zones.
How to read the chart
The left column is the local time in Moscow, the other columns show the same moment in Chisinau in January and in July. “+1 day” means it is already the next calendar day in Chisinau, “−1 day” — still the previous one. Rows outside 9:00–18:00 are dimmed. The converter above works the other way too: press “Swap” to enter a time in Chisinau.
