  • Source-zone interpretationUnique local time

Uses the browser’s installed IANA time-zone data. Future rules can change; keep the browser updated and confirm important travel or meeting times. Abbreviations such as CST are avoided because they are ambiguous.

How this was calculated

Resolve the entered local calendar time in its IANA time zone.

Convert that exact instant to the destination zone, applying its offset for that date.

Formula and method

Resolve the source wall time to an instant using the zone’s offset on that date, then format that instant in the destination zone. Repeated times require choosing an occurrence; nonexistent times are rejected.

Worked example

September 11, 2026 at 12:00 in Asia/Kolkata is 06:30 UTC and 02:30 in America/New_York under the installed time-zone rules.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the date matter?

Daylight-saving rules can change the offset across the year. Government changes also affect future dates, so browser time-zone data must be current.
