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.

JST is 3 hours behind NZST (standard time).

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

NZST · New Zealand Time

Standard offset +12:00

Observes DST

Starts: Sep 27, 2026 · 02:00 → 03:00; last_sunday_of_september
Ends: Apr 5, 2026 · 03:00 → 02:00; first_sunday_of_april
Daylight time: NZDT · +13:00

New Zealand (Pacific/Auckland) transitions between NZST (UTC+12, winter) and NZDT (UTC+13, summer). NZDT is also represented as a separate record covering the daylight-time state specifically. Chatham Islands use separate offsets (UTC+12:45 / UTC+13:45) and are not included here.

JST · Japan Time

Standard offset +09:00

Does not observe DST

Japan Time remains on a constant standard offset for the year.

Japan has not observed daylight saving time since 1951.
