About the time in Ho Chi Minh City
Clocks in Ho Chi Minh City stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +7 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Vietnam.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Ho Chi Minh City day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 02:00–10:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 05:43 and sunset at 06:09 local time, giving 12h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.82, 106.63) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Ho Chi Minh City.
