Time & Date
Time Zone Converter
Convert times between Australian time zones and international cities.
How this calculator works
The converter takes your input time, applies the UTC offset of the source time zone, converts to UTC, then applies the target time zone's UTC offset. It accounts for daylight saving time transitions based on the selected date. The result shows the converted time, date (in case it crosses midnight), and the UTC offset difference.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What are Australia's time zones?
Australia has three main time zones: AEST (UTC+10) for QLD, NSW, VIC, TAS, ACT; ACST (UTC+9:30) for SA and NT; and AWST (UTC+8) for WA. NSW, VIC, TAS, SA, and ACT observe daylight saving (AEDT/ACDT) from first Sunday in October to first Sunday in April. QLD, WA, and NT do not observe DST.
Does Queensland do daylight saving?
No. Queensland does not observe daylight saving time. During DST months, QLD is 1 hour behind Sydney/Melbourne (QLD stays on AEST UTC+10 while they move to AEDT UTC+11). This has been a contentious political issue for decades.
What is the time difference between Australia and the US?
AEST to US Eastern: 14-16 hours ahead depending on DST. When it's 9am Monday in Sydney, it's roughly 6-7pm Sunday in New York. The exact difference varies because Australian and US DST transitions happen on different dates.
