How Time Zone Conversion Works

Time zone conversion works by comparing the UTC offset of one location to another. Every city or region is measured relative to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which acts as the global reference point for civil time.

HKT is 17 hours ahead of AKST (standard time).

Daylight Saving Time: AKST observes DST; HKT does not. The offset between them shifts by 1 hour twice a year — in spring and autumn — when AKST changes its clocks.

DST schedule for 2026

Current-year daylight saving start and end dates for the selected zones.

AKST · Alaska Time

Standard offset −09:00

Observes DST

Starts: Mar 8, 2026 · 02:00 → 03:00; second_sunday_of_march
Ends: Nov 1, 2026 · 02:00 → 01:00; first_sunday_of_november
Daylight time: AKDT · −08:00

Hyder, Alaska (population ~50, southeastern panhandle) de facto follows Pacific Time to align with neighboring Stewart, British Columbia — it is technically in AKST territory but observes PST/PDT in practice. This is an extreme edge case and does not affect zone coverage.

HKT · Hong Kong Time

Standard offset +08:00

Does not observe DST

Hong Kong Time remains on a constant standard offset for the year.

Hong Kong has not observed DST since 1979.
