Understanding UTC Offsets

All time zones are expressed as offsets from UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). For example, EST is UTC-5 (5 hours behind UTC), while IST is UTC+5:30 (5.5 hours ahead of UTC). Some regions use unusual offsets like Nepal (UTC+5:45) or Newfoundland (UTC-3:30). Our World Clock can help you visualize these differences.

Tips for Accurate Time Conversion

  • Always verify DST status - The time difference between two locations can change when one observes DST and the other doesn't.
  • Use city names for accuracy - Cities like 'Phoenix' don't observe DST, unlike the rest of Arizona's timezone.
  • Check the date - When converting across the International Date Line, the date may change even if the time looks similar.
  • Plan outdoor activities - around daylight hours using our Sunrise & Sunset Calculator. Sunrise/Sunset.
