Denpasar does not change its clocks
A fixed offset, all year round
Denpasar stays on Central Indonesia Time at UTC+08:00 every day of the year. There is no spring-forward or fall-back here, which puts it with the majority: most of the world's time zones do not observe daylight saving.
That sounds like it makes scheduling simpler, and locally it does — but it introduces a different trap for anyone working with Denpasar from a country that does change clocks. The offset between you and Denpasar is not constant: it changes when your clocks move, even though nothing changed here. A recurring call that has run at the same local time for months will shift by an hour, from your side, without anyone editing the invite.
When the gap to Denpasar changes
Dates in the next year where the difference shifts, by counterpart city

Cities that share a clock, a country, or an offset
On exactly the same clock as Denpasar
These share the Asia/Makassar zone, so they keep the same time as Denpasar year-round.
Elsewhere in Indonesia
Indonesia spans more than one time zone, so these cities are not on Denpasar's clock — a common source of scheduling errors when people pick a country rather than a city.
Same offset (UTC+08:00), different part of the world
These sit in other countries but keep the same standard offset as Denpasar (Central Indonesia Time). They will not necessarily change clocks on the same dates, so the match can be seasonal rather than permanent.

About Denpasar
The capital of Bali and the island's main gateway, and one of the largest remote-work hubs in Southeast Asia. Bali runs on Central Indonesian Time (UTC+08:00) — an hour ahead of Jakarta, which catches out anyone who assumes a single Indonesian clock. The UTC+08:00 offset gives a workable overlap with Australia and East Asia, but only a narrow one with Europe and almost none with the Americas, which is why so much of the island's remote work runs asynchronously.
