Is the Moon Phase a global constant?

If it's Full Moon in the US, it's also a Full Moon phase in China, right?

Correct, the moon revolves relative to the center of the Earth, so no matter where you are on the surface, the moon appears the same

There is a slight parallax but it is insignificant, 12 000 km vs 380000 km.
