Ramadan 2027 in Salvador, Brazil

Sehri and Iftar in Salvador

For Salvador, the evening fast opens at local sunset, shown as 5:32 pm today. The pre-dawn cutoff is calculated separately from the Fajr setting; sunrise is not used as the start of the fast. The page uses Salvador’s coordinates (-12.97, -38.50) and the America/Bahia time zone.

Sunrise-to-sunset daylight in Salvador lasts 12 hours 30 minutes today. Across the June and December solstices that daylight span differs by about 1 hour 32 minutes at this latitude. That helps explain why Ramadan feels very different when the lunar month returns in another season, but it should not be read as the fasting duration because Fajr occurs before sunrise.

Solar noon in Salvador is 11:18 am today, about 42 minutes before 12:00 on the local clock. That offset is one reason sunset can look unusually early or late when compared with another city that keeps the same time zone.

For comparison, sunset in Manaus is 5:50 pm today, 77 minutes later than in Salvador. Travellers should therefore switch to the timetable for the place where they are actually observing the fast rather than carrying one city’s times across Brazil.

This timetable uses the Karachi prayer calculation setting. The calculation notes explain how the site handles Fajr, Isha and unusual daylight conditions, so that general methodology is not repeated on every location page.
