Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time difference between EDT and MSK?

During standard time, Moscow Standard Time is 7 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 Russia observe Daylight Saving Time?

Russia abolished Daylight Saving Time entirely in 2014, settling permanently on standard time after a contentious experiment with year-round summer time that began in 2011. Moscow Standard Time has remained fixed at UTC+03:00 ever since, with no seasonal clock changes of any kind.

Are MSK and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) the same?

During summer, countries observing Eastern European Time — including Ukraine, Romania, and Greece — shift to EEST at UTC+03:00, which numerically matches MSK exactly. However, MSK holds at UTC+03:00 year-round, while EEST is a temporary designation that reverts to UTC+02:00 when those countries return to standard time each autumn.
