Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time difference between EDT and AEST?
During standard time, Australian Eastern Standard Time is 14 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.
When does EDT start and end?
EDT begins on the second Sunday in March at 02:00 local time, when clocks spring forward one hour from EST (UTC-5) to EDT (UTC-4). It ends on the first Sunday in November at 02:00 local time, when clocks fall back to EST. In 2026, EDT runs from March 8 through November 1.
Is EDT the same as EST?
EDT and EST are two phases of the same Eastern Time zone, not two separate zones. EST (Eastern Standard Time) is the winter offset at UTC-5, observed from early November through mid-March. EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) is the summer offset at UTC-4, active during Daylight Saving Time — meaning New York and Toronto run one hour ahead of their winter clock for roughly eight months of every year.
Does all of eastern Australia observe Daylight Saving Time?
No — eastern Australia is split on DST. New South Wales (Sydney), Victoria (Melbourne), Tasmania (Hobart), and the ACT (Canberra) advance their clocks to AEDT (UTC+11) each October, while Queensland (Brisbane) opts out entirely and remains on AEST (UTC+10) year-round. This means Sydney and Brisbane run on the same clock for only part of the year.
What is the difference between AEST and AEDT?
AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time) is the UTC+10:00 offset observed during the Southern Hemisphere winter months, roughly April through October. AEDT (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) is the UTC+11:00 offset applied during the Southern Hemisphere summer when clocks spring forward in October, observed by New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, and the ACT.
