Questions & answers
How do I convert time from one time zone to another?
Pick the place you start from, choose the date and time, then add the places you want. The converter shows the local time in each one, the date, and whether it is the next or the previous day.
Does the converter handle daylight saving time?
Yes. It uses the time zone rules built into your browser, so the answer for the date you pick is right, even when one place has already changed its clocks and another has not.
What is the difference between UTC and GMT?
For everyday use they show the same time. UTC is the modern world time standard. GMT is the older name and is also the winter time in the United Kingdom, which uses BST in summer.
Is IST India time or Irish time?
The letters IST can mean India Standard Time (UTC+05:30), Irish Standard Time or Israel Standard Time. When you choose IST in this converter it means India Standard Time.
Can I convert a time in the future or the past?
Yes. Change the date and time and every place updates. This is handy for planning a call or a flight weeks ahead, when daylight saving may differ.
How do I share a conversion with someone?
Press Copy link. The address contains your places and time, so whoever opens it sees the same conversion.
