About the time in Karaj
Sunrise today lands at 05:28 and sunset at 06:49 local time, giving 13h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.97, 51.09) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Karaj.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Karaj day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 05:30–13:30 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.
Around 1,973,470 people live in Karaj, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
