Time Zone Table

Local Time

Please Note

Most countries including those on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) change to Summer Time (GMT+1) during Summer. All time zones therefore shift to +1 during this period. Although this table will however continue to show your local time relating to GMT, the relative time difference to the Ukraine will remain correct, and the time shown for the current time in the Ukraine will also be correct.

The UK and Ukraine go over to Summer Time the last Sunday in March until the last Sunday in October.

The United States uses eight time zones. From east to west they are Atlantic Standard Time (AST), Eastern Standard Time (EST), Central Standard Time (CST), Mountain Standard Time (MST), Pacific Standard Time (PST), Alaskan Standard Time (AST), Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HST), and Samoa standard time (UTC-11).

Daylight Saving Time begins at 2:00 a.m. local time on the first Sunday in April. On the last Sunday in October areas on Daylight Saving Time return to Standard Time at 2:00 a.m. The names in each time zone change along with Daylight Saving Time. Eastern Standard Time (EST) becomes Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), and so forth. Arizona, parts of Indiana, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, U.S. Virgin Islands and American Samoa do not observe Daylight Saving Time. A new federal law will take effect in March 2007 which extends Daylight Saving Time by four weeks.

GMT is the code for (Greenwich Mean Time) also called UTC = Coordinated Universal Time. The (-9h) in Alaskan Standard Time refers to that time zone being nine hours behind UTC or GMT and so forth for the other Time Zones.
