Planning a call to Norway

The single best time to call Norway is late morning their time — around 10:00 to 11:00 AM local — because it falls inside the working day for the widest range of other countries. From New York City, for example, a good window is 9:00 AM–11:00 AM your time. Dial +47 followed by the local number.

The table above assumes a standard 9-to-5 workday on both ends and uses the live UTC offset, so it already accounts for daylight saving time wherever it currently applies. If you need a specific meeting slot rather than a whole window, the meeting planner lets you line up several cities at once.
