Timezone Converter
Convert times across timezones for meetings and calls.
Find the time in other cities and time zones
Timezone Converter takes a date and time in one place and shows what that moment is in every zone on your list — useful for scheduling calls across continents or catching an event announced in someone else’s local time.
It relies on the time zone database built into your browser, so daylight saving is applied for the exact date you pick. No network requests are made; every conversion is calculated on your device.
How to convert a time between time zones
- The Date and Time boxes start at the current time, and In timezone at your device’s own zone. Change them to the moment you want to convert, or click Now to return to the present.
- Read the converted times in the list below. Six zones are shown to begin with: UTC, Los Angeles, New York, London, Kolkata and Tokyo.
- Add another zone by choosing it in the menu at the bottom and clicking Add; remove one with ×.
- Tick 24-hour clock if you’d rather see 14:00 than 2:00 PM.
Reading each row
- Zone and offset: each row names the city, plus its abbreviation where one exists and its UTC offset on that date, such as “EDT · UTC−04:00”.
- Local time and date: with the weekday, so you can see when your morning lands in someone else’s evening.
- Day markers: “(+1 day)” or “(−1 day)” means the time falls on the next or previous calendar day compared with the date you entered.
Situations where time zones trip people up
- Meetings: find a slot that sits inside working hours for everyone on the list.
- Deadlines: turn “5 PM Friday, New York time” into the time it really is where you are.
- Live events and launches: convert the start of a stream, match or product launch announced in another country.
Daylight saving and UTC offsets
How daylight saving changes a conversion
Many regions move their clocks forward in spring and back in autumn, and they don’t all switch on the same weekend. For a few weeks a year the gap between London and New York is an hour different from usual; because each zone’s offset is looked up for the date you enter, the converter accounts for this.
On the night the clocks change, some local times don’t exist and others happen twice. Enter a skipped time and a note explains it and shows the equivalent time after the jump; enter a time that occurs twice and the note says the first occurrence is being used.
Why some offsets aren’t whole hours
An offset is how far a zone is ahead of or behind Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Most are whole hours, but India uses UTC+05:30 and Nepal UTC+05:45, so mental arithmetic can be 30 or 45 minutes out. Abbreviations can be ambiguous too, which is why every row also shows the numeric offset.
Timezone Converter: common questions
Does it handle daylight saving time?
Yes. Offsets come from your browser’s time zone database for the specific date and time you enter, so a date in July and one in January can give different answers for the same two cities.
Why can’t I find my city?
Zones follow the standard IANA list, which names each zone after one representative city. Choose the city that shares your zone — for example, America / New York for most of the US East Coast, or Asia / Kolkata for all of India.
Are the zones I add saved?
No. The list returns to the six default zones when you reload the page.
Does the result keep ticking like a world clock?
No. It converts the date and time in the boxes and stays put; click Now to refresh it to the current moment.
Can I convert a time to or from UTC?
Yes. UTC is in the default list and at the top of the “In timezone” menu; if you remove it from the list, it’s at the top of the Add menu. For a time written as a Unix timestamp, use the Unix Timestamp Converter. Other converters are in Conversion Tools.
