How this works

This uses your browser's built-in time zone database (the same one used by operating systems worldwide) to correctly convert between time zones, including automatically adjusting for daylight saving time where it applies for the specific date you choose.

Example

12:00 PM UTC converts to about 8:00 AM in New York (Eastern) during standard time, or 8:00 AM during daylight time too, since UTC-4/UTC-5 shifts along with New York's own clock changes.

Step-by-step guide

Enter the date and time you're converting.
Choose the "from" time zone - where that time applies.
Choose the "to" time zone and read the converted result.

Common mistakes

Using a fixed offset (like "UTC-5") year-round - many places observe daylight saving time, which shifts the real offset for part of the year.

Forgetting the date matters, not just the time - converting a time near midnight can shift to the previous or next calendar day in the target zone.

Frequently asked questions

Does this handle daylight saving time automatically?

Yes - it uses your browser's time zone database, which already accounts for each region's daylight saving rules and the specific date you enter.

Why did the date change after converting?

Time zone differences can push a time across midnight - for example, 11 PM in Tokyo can be the previous afternoon in New York.

Can I convert between two zones that aren't in the list?

This tool covers a set of major cities covering most common time zones. For a city not listed, use the closest one sharing the same time zone.
