  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Romanians are generally very multilingual (English is the standard for tech) and professional. Business culture values personal rapport; a warm but professional tone is the most effective for long-term collaboration.

  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best call times are 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. "Cariocas" (Rio locals) value an informal and friendly start to meetings. Always spend a few minutes on social pleasantries. Avoid scheduling anything for Friday afternoon as the city begins its weekend transition early.
