Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time difference between AEDT and BJT?
During standard time, Beijing Time is 3 hours behind Australian Eastern Daylight Time.
When does AEDT start and end?
AEDT begins on the first Sunday in October at 02:00 local time, when clocks spring forward one hour from AEST (UTC+10) to AEDT (UTC+11). It ends on the first Sunday in April at 03:00 local time, when clocks fall back to AEST. In 2026, AEDT starts on October 4 and ends on April 5 — following the Southern Hemisphere summer calendar, which runs opposite to DST schedules in Europe and North America.
Is Brisbane on AEDT?
No — Queensland, including Brisbane, does not observe Daylight Saving Time and remains on AEST (UTC+10) year-round. During the AEDT period from October through April, Sydney and Melbourne advance to UTC+11 while Brisbane stays at UTC+10, creating a one-hour gap between cities that share nearly the same longitude and are otherwise in the same time zone for the other six months of the year.
Does China observe Daylight Saving Time?
Mainland China abolished Daylight Saving Time in 1991 and has remained permanently fixed at UTC+8:00 ever since, with no seasonal clock adjustment at any point in the year. This means the offset between Beijing or Shanghai and any DST-observing country shifts by one hour twice annually when those countries change their clocks — but BJT itself never moves.
How many time zones are there in China?
Despite spanning a geographical width that would naturally encompass five separate time zones — from the eastern coast at roughly UTC+8 to the western reaches of Xinjiang near UTC+6 or even UTC+5 — China officially mandates a single unified time zone, Beijing Time (BJT) at UTC+8:00, across the entire country. This policy has been in place since 1949 and applies to all 34 provincial-level administrative regions without exception.
