Reading the world clock

  • Read the colours

    Green is 9 to 5, beige is early morning and evening, dark blue is night. A quick look shows who is at work right now.

  • Mind the day

    A day in orange is not your day: late evening in the Americas is already tomorrow in much of Asia and Australia.

  • Plan a call

    Click any city to open it in the time zone converter beside your own time, then add more cities and pick an hour that suits everyone.

Questions

What time is it now around the world?

The world clock above shows the current local time in 162 big cities, grouped by region, with the day each one is on. Search for a city or pick a region to narrow the list.

What does the star next to a city mean?

The city is on summer time (daylight saving time) today, so its clock is an hour ahead of its winter time.

What is UTC?

Coordinated Universal Time, the reference every time zone is measured from. It matches Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), and pilots and the military call it Zulu time. A city at UTC+9 is nine hours ahead of it.

Why do some cities show half or quarter hours?

A few countries sit between whole hours: India is UTC+5:30, Nepal UTC+5:45 and Newfoundland UTC−3:30 in winter. Their minutes differ from the rest of the list.
