About this tool
Seeing several clocks side by side answers a question that arithmetic does not: whether it is a reasonable hour to contact someone. Working out that Tokyo is nine hours ahead is easy; registering that this makes it 11pm there is what actually stops you sending a meeting request. Two things make manual calculation unreliable. Daylight saving does not move in step - the US and Europe change on different dates, the southern hemisphere shifts in the opposite direction, and large parts of Asia and Africa do not observe it at all - so a gap of "eight hours" is only true for part of the year. And some zones are offset by 30 or 45 minutes rather than whole hours: India is UTC+5:30, Nepal UTC+5:45, parts of Australia UTC+9:30. Live clocks sidestep all of it by showing what the time actually is right now. This runs in your browser using your device's own timezone data.
How to use this tool
- Search for a cityType a city or country name rather than scrolling a list.
- Add the locations you care aboutYour team, your clients, your family - whichever zones you check regularly.
- Read the clocks togetherSeeing them side by side is what makes "is this a sensible time to call" obvious.
- Check dates as well as timesAcross a large gap the date differs too, which is easy to miss when scheduling.
Why time differences change during the year
Countries change their clocks for daylight saving on different dates, and many - including most of Asia and Africa - do not change them at all. That is why the gap between two cities can shift by an hour for part of the year.
Some time zones are offset by 30 or 45 minutes rather than whole hours, such as India (UTC+5:30) and Nepal (UTC+5:45). A world clock shows the real local time, so you do not have to remember the exceptions.
Key features
- Live clocks, so daylight saving and offset changes are always already applied.
- Multiple locations side by side, which is what scheduling actually requires.
- Handles half-hour and 45-minute offsets that manual arithmetic gets wrong.
- Search rather than a fixed list, so smaller cities are reachable.
- Runs in your browser with no account.
Common uses
- Checking whether it is a reasonable hour to call a colleague or client abroad.
- Coordinating a meeting across several offices.
- Keeping track of family or friends in other countries.
- Monitoring market or trading hours in different regions.
- Planning a call while travelling, when your own local time is unfamiliar.
Tips for better results
- Watch the date, not just the time. Across a large gap it is frequently a different day, which is the classic scheduling error.
- Remember daylight saving shifts on different dates in different countries, so the gap between two cities changes a few times a year.
- Some zones are offset by 30 or 45 minutes. India, Nepal and parts of Australia are not whole-hour offsets.
- For scheduling a specific future time rather than reading the current one, the Time Zone Converter is the better tool.
- When arranging across zones, state the time in both plus UTC. It removes the ambiguity entirely.
Mistakes to avoid
- Calculating a fixed hour difference and reusing it all year, when daylight saving changes it seasonally.
- Forgetting the date differs, and scheduling something for the wrong day.
- Assuming every zone is a whole number of hours from UTC.
- Using a country name where a country spans several zones - the US, Russia and Australia all do.
- Confusing a zone abbreviation like CST, which means different things in the US and China.
Frequently asked questions
Yes - add several cities/countries to see all their current times side by side, useful for coordinating across multiple time zones simultaneously.
Yes - the displayed time correctly reflects whether a given location is currently observing daylight saving time, based on that region's actual current rules.
Search by city or country name rather than scrolling a list. That also matters for large countries like the US, Russia and Australia, which span several zones - a country name alone is ambiguous there.
Because daylight saving does not move in step. The US and Europe switch on different dates, the southern hemisphere moves in the opposite direction, and much of Asia and Africa does not observe it at all - so a fixed "eight hour difference" is only true for part of the year.
Because zones follow political and geographic boundaries rather than neat lines. India is UTC+5:30, Nepal UTC+5:45, and parts of Australia UTC+9:30 - which is exactly the kind of thing manual hour arithmetic gets wrong.
No. Clocks run in your browser using your device's own timezone data, so nothing is transmitted.
Late morning on the US East Coast overlaps the European afternoon: 9-11am in New York is 2-4pm in London and 3-5pm in Berlin. For the US West Coast the overlap is much shorter, so early-morning Pacific slots work best.
Yes. Add each teammate's city and keep the page open on a second screen; seeing local times side by side helps avoid messages that land in someone's evening.
Large countries such as the US, Canada, Australia and Russia span several zones, so search for the city rather than the country. China and India each use a single national time despite their width.
