About the time in Veracruz
Sunrise today lands at 05:54 and sunset at 06:28 local time, giving 12h 34m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (16.05, -92.20) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Veracruz.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Veracruz day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 15:00–23:00 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.
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
