World time

Check the current time in a city, or convert a specific date and time from one city to another. Offsets are computed for the date you pick, not by applying today’s difference to the whole year.

      What this does

      Every city is bound to an IANA time zone identifier such as Asia/Shanghai or America/New_York. The current time, UTC offset and daylight saving status are all derived from that identifier for the moment in question, rather than from a fixed offset.

      A country can span several zones. Country pages list each zone with a representative city instead of giving one vague “country time”.

      Zone rules come from the IANA time zone database shipped with the runtime and follow its updates. No external time service is called.

      FAQ

      How many hours ahead of UTC is Beijing in the world clock?
      Beijing uses Asia/Shanghai and is 8 hours ahead of UTC for current time comparisons. For example, 00:00 UTC corresponds to 08:00 in Beijing on the same date. The world clock displays different local representations of the same instant. Check the calendar date as well as the hour when comparing cities, because other time-zone combinations can cross midnight and show different dates despite referring to one moment.
      Why should a world time lookup include both a city and a date?
      The city and date together determine the applicable UTC offset, because daylight-saving rules can change it during the year. A location can use 2 different offsets within 1 year. Do not apply today's difference automatically to a historical or future appointment. The page converts using time-zone rules, so retain the specific date when sharing a comparison and check the relevant rule if a local clock change is involved.
      Can a webpage world clock replace a precision time synchronization device?
      A webpage world clock cannot replace a precision time synchronization device, because server time, network delay, and browser execution affect the display. A 1-second difference between 2 refreshes is not evidence that a time zone changed. Use this page for local-time reference and comparisons between places. Applications requiring high-precision synchronization need a dedicated timing method rather than an assumption that an on-screen clock is an exact measurement.
