Calling Sweden from the USA: what to know
Sweden is usually 6 hours ahead of New York and 9 hours ahead of Los Angeles. For a few weeks in March and around the end of October the gap is an hour shorter, because Europe and the US change their clocks on different dates.
Swedish office hours are roughly 8am to 5pm, which is 2am to 11am in New York. Early morning on the East Coast is the easiest window to reach a Swedish business or authority. The same dialling applies from Canada: 011, then 46.
