Where these units come from
Until the middle of the nineteenth century every town kept its own noon, set by the sun overhead, and nobody minded that the next town was four minutes behind. Railways ended that: a timetable cannot be written for a hundred local noons. Britain put its railways on Greenwich time in 1847, and in 1884 the International Meridian Conference in Washington chose Greenwich as the prime meridian and sketched the twenty-four-hour scheme we still use. Greenwich Mean Time was the world's reference until 1972, when Coordinated Universal Time replaced it: UTC is kept by atomic clocks and tied back to the turning Earth by leap seconds. The abbreviations on this page name standard time — the winter setting — which is why each one is a fixed number of hours rather than something that drifts through the year.
Where you meet them
A time zone becomes real the moment two people in different places have to agree on one moment: a call between offices, a flight that lands before it took off, a market that opens while you are asleep, a deadline written in somebody else's afternoon. Server logs, train and flight schedules and anything stamped with a time are kept in UTC precisely so that the question can always be settled, no matter whose clock was on the wall.
Questions people ask
What about summer time?
The offsets here are standard-time offsets, the ones a zone keeps in winter. Where summer time is observed, the same places move one hour further on for part of the year and take a different name: Central European Time becomes Central European Summer Time, Eastern Standard Time becomes Eastern Daylight Time. The switching dates are not the same in every country, and the two hemispheres change in opposite months, so for a date inside a summer-time period add an hour to whichever side observes it.
Why isn't every difference a whole number of hours?
Because offsets are decided by governments, not by geometry. India is half an hour off the hour, at UTC+05:30; Nepal is three quarters, at UTC+05:45; the Chatham Islands are at UTC+12:45. Any of these can be changed by law, and several countries have moved their offset within living memory.
Is the answer exact?
Where both units are defined in terms of one another by whole numbers, yes — the page says so above the figure, and the only rounding is in how many digits are shown. Where the ratio has no finite decimal, the page shows twelve significant digits and says the relation is approximate rather than pretending otherwise.

The esports tournament in Los Angeles, followed from Bucharest
The final of an electronic-games tournament is played in Los Angeles, with the start at 6:00 p.m. PT. A concert at the Hollywood Bowl begins at 8:00 p.m. PT. A candidate in Romania has an interview with a Californian company at 9:00 a.m. PT. For a reader in Bucharest, Athens, Chisinau, Sofia or Helsinki, all of this means a “convert PST to EET” calculation. On standard time the calculation is stated in one line: add ten hours. 6:00 p.m. PST becomes 04:00 EET the next day, 9:00 a.m. PST becomes 19:00 EET, and 8:00 p.m. PST becomes 06:00 EET the following day. Ten hours also holds in summer, between PDT and Eastern European summer time; the figure falls to nine only between 8 and 28 March and between 25 and 31 October.
The page contains the rule, the tables, a description of the zones and episodes from games, music, religion, astronomy, hiring and banking. The calculation takes place in your browser, and no figure is sent to a server.
Esports finals
The start time
A final that begins at 6:00 p.m. PST starts at 04:00 EET the next morning. Romanian players and Romanian-language streams usually follow it in a repeat at midday.
Afternoon matches
A qualifying match at 1:00 p.m. PST is at 23:00 EET. A “convert PST to EET” calculation made beforehand shows whether it is worth staying up or watching the recording.
The Hollywood Bowl in summer
The evening concert
A concert that starts at 8:00 p.m. PDT starts at 06:00 EEST the next morning. East European audiences usually see it in a morning broadcast.
Open rehearsals
The afternoon dress rehearsal, from 2:00 p.m. PDT, is at 00:00 EEST. Only enthusiasts stay up for it.
The Resurrection service in a Californian parish
The American midnight
An Orthodox parish in California holds its Easter service at 00:00 PDT, which is 10:00 EEST on Easter morning. Believers in Romania can follow it online after returning from their own service.
The service at home
The service in Romania, at 00:00 EEST, is at 14:00 PDT on the previous day. A “convert PST to EET” calculation shows that the two services are ten hours apart.
Eclipses seen from California
The moment of maximum
A partial eclipse with its maximum at 11:30 a.m. PDT takes place at 21:30 EEST. Observers in Romania see it on a live stream in the evening.
The Los Angeles observatory
Presentations at the Griffith Observatory often begin at 10:00 a.m. PST, which is 20:00 EET. A “convert PST to EET” calculation tells you at once whether you can follow them after dinner.
Job interviews with Californian companies
The interview hour
Interviews are held in Californian working hours. One scheduled for 9:00 a.m. PST is at 19:00 EET, and one at 11:00 a.m. PST is at 21:00 EET. Romanian candidates reach them after a full day’s work.
The offer and the reply
A deadline for accepting an offer “by the end of the day” in California, which is 5:00 p.m. PST, expires at 03:00 EET. Whoever does not convert PST to EET with the date in view may think there is another night left.
Money sent from California to Romania
The bank counter
A transfer that has to be sent “by 4:00 p.m.” Pacific time has to be sent, on Romanian time, before 02:00 the following night. The recipient sees the money only the next day.
The working day
A payment started on Friday at 5:30 p.m. PST is Saturday at 03:30 EET, so it enters the working day on Monday. The ten-hour difference can cost a weekend.
Technology conferences with Romanian speakers
The morning presentation
A presentation scheduled for 8:30 a.m. PST is at 18:30 EET. Participants in Romania follow it after work.
Question sessions
Question-and-answer sessions begin at 10:00 a.m. PST, which is 20:00 EET. A “convert PST to EET” calculation tells you at once whether you can arrive in time from work.
How to convert PST to EET, in three steps
Step 1: add ten
PST is UTC−8 and EET is UTC+2. The East European clock is ten hours ahead of the Californian one. Write the California time on a 24-hour clock and add 10.
Step 2: correct the date
If the total passes 24, subtract 24 and go to the next day. That happens for every Californian time from 14:00 onward: 18:30 PST is 04:30 EET the next day, 22:15 PST is 08:15 EET the next day.
Step 3: check against a known value
02:00 PST is 12:00 EET. 06:30 PST is 16:30 EET. 09:00 PST is 19:00 EET. 12:00 PST is 22:00 EET. 13:45 PST is 23:45 EET. 14:00 PST is 00:00 EET the next day. On summer time, 10:00 a.m. PDT is 20:00 EEST.
The Californian time zone
Where it applies
From November to March, UTC−8 is the clock of California, Oregon, Washington, nearly all of Nevada, British Columbia and Baja California. From March the clock moves to UTC−7 and is called PDT.
Who follows it
Game companies, film studios, concert halls and observatories in the west fix their schedules on this clock. A reader in Romania therefore often has to convert PST to EET.
Eastern European time
Countries and clocks
EET, UTC+2, is the winter clock in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Cyprus, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine and Moldova. In summer these countries move to EEST, UTC+3, from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October.
Egypt
Egypt is on EET but has its own summer calendar, from the last Friday of April to the last Thursday of October. Against California its distance is ten hours nearly all year; between 8 March and 23 April and on 30 and 31 October it is nine.
Ten hours on the dial
The working days
A Californian office working from 09:00 to 17:00 works, on Romanian time, from 19:00 to 03:00. A Romanian one working from 09:00 to 17:00 works from 23:00 to 07:00 on the Pacific clock. The two days do not overlap at all: the Romanian day ends at 17:00 EET, which is 7:00 PST, two hours before the Californian day begins.
Who adapts
Mixed teams choose one of two solutions: the Romanians work late into the evening or the Californians start early in the morning. A “convert PST to EET” calculation at each proposed meeting shows who is being asked to make the sacrifice.
The flight with a stop
A plane that leaves San Francisco at 16:00 PST and flies for nearly thirteen hours, with one stop, arrives at 05:00 PST, which is 15:00 EET the next day. The ticket says 16:00 and 15:00, as for a trip of twenty-three hours.
The Nasdaq in the Romanian afternoon
The opening
The exchange opens at 9:30 a.m. ET, which is 6:30 a.m. PT or 16:30 EET, and closes at 4:00 p.m. ET, which is 23:00 EET. Investors in Romania follow their American shares in the evening.
Quarterly results
A Californian company that reports at 1:05 p.m. PT reports at 23:05 EET. Romanian analysts comment on the figures the next morning.
Remote work between Cluj and San Francisco
The joint meeting
Teams with members in Cluj and San Francisco meet at 7:00 a.m. PT, which is 17:00 EET. For the Romanians it is the end of the day, for the Californians a very early hour.
The handover
A Californian engineer who finishes the day at 5:00 p.m. PT hands over at 03:00 EET, when the Romanian colleagues are asleep. A “convert PST to EET” calculation at each handover shows why written documentation is a must.
The same Californian hour, four moments of the year
Winter
On Tuesday 20 January, 09:00 PST reads 19:00 EET. So does Tuesday 3 March, because nobody has changed a clock yet.
Spring
On Tuesday 17 March, 09:00 PDT reads 18:00 EET. The Americans moved their clocks on 8 March and eastern Europeans only on the 29th, so the real distance is nine hours.
Summer
On Tuesday 21 July, 09:00 PDT reads 19:00 EEST. Both clocks are on summer time, and the figure is back to ten hours.
Autumn
On Tuesday 27 October, 09:00 PDT reads 18:00 EET, because Europe returned to standard time on 25 October and America only on 1 November. On Tuesday 8 December, 09:00 PST reads 19:00 EET.
The four weeks with a nine-hour gap
The three in spring
Between 8 and 28 March California is on summer time while eastern Europe is still on winter time. The distance between the Pacific and EET is then nine hours.
The one in autumn
Between 25 and 31 October Europe has returned to standard time and America has not. A “convert PST to EET” calculation on the ten-hour figure gives a result an hour too late.
World clocks, counted from California
How many hours to add
From Pacific time add three hours for New York, eight for London in winter, nine for Berlin, ten for Bucharest and thirteen and a half for Delhi.
One instant, four cities
When it is 9:00 a.m. in Los Angeles, it is 12:00 in New York, 17:00 in London, 19:00 in Bucharest and 22:30 in Delhi. An invitation that lists them all spares the reader any convert PST to EET.
Romanians in California
Family calls
A call at 9:00 a.m. PST reaches Bucharest at 19:00, when the family comes home from work. One at 12:00 PST reaches 22:00, when many are getting ready for bed.
The holidays
The Christmas Eve meal at 19:00 EET is at 9:00 a.m. PST. Americans in the west can follow it on a screen at breakfast.
Wildfire and storm bulletins
Time of issue
A bulletin issued at 8:00 a.m. PT appears at 18:00 EET. One issued at 5:00 p.m. PT appears at 03:00 EET the next day.
How to read it
Each bulletin carries the local time of the west coast. Someone following from a distance does a “convert PST to EET” calculation for both times and knows when the latest version appeared.
How the clock changes affect this pair
The 2026 calendar
PST and EET are not always the same distance apart. In 2026: 1 January to 7 March, 29 March to 24 October and 1 November to 31 December — EET runs 10 hours ahead of PST; 8 to 28 March and 25 to 31 October — EET runs 9 hours ahead of PST.
How to apply it
During the summer periods the zones are called PDT and EEST. The calculator assumes the winter gap of 10 hours; adjust by the difference shown for your date. Before you convert PST to EET, find the period that contains your date.

Reading the rows
Every line gives a PST time and the EET time at the same instant, with a note wherever the date moves. It is the quickest check when you convert PST to EET. No half-hour is involved in this pair, so the minute figures never change. The gap used here is the standard winter one; the period section lists the dates on which it differs.
Half past every hour
PST :30 against EET
00:30 PST = 10:30 EET. 01:30 PST = 11:30 EET. 02:30 PST = 12:30 EET. 03:30 PST = 13:30 EET. 04:30 PST = 14:30 EET. 05:30 PST = 15:30 EET. 06:30 PST = 16:30 EET. 07:30 PST = 17:30 EET. 08:30 PST = 18:30 EET. 09:30 PST = 19:30 EET. 10:30 PST = 20:30 EET. 11:30 PST = 21:30 EET. 12:30 PST = 22:30 EET. 13:30 PST = 23:30 EET. 14:30 PST = 00:30 EET (next day). 15:30 PST = 01:30 EET (next day). 16:30 PST = 02:30 EET (next day). 17:30 PST = 03:30 EET (next day). 18:30 PST = 04:30 EET (next day). 19:30 PST = 05:30 EET (next day). 20:30 PST = 06:30 EET (next day). 21:30 PST = 07:30 EET (next day). 22:30 PST = 08:30 EET (next day). 23:30 PST = 09:30 EET (next day).
A note on the list
Schedules often use :30 slots. Each entry below gives the EET equivalent, so you do not have to convert PST to EET again for them. The gap used here is the standard winter one; the period section lists the dates on which it differs.
Conversions with minutes
PST into EET
01:05 PST = 11:05 EET. 03:20 PST = 13:20 EET. 05:50 PST = 15:50 EET. 07:35 PST = 17:35 EET. 10:10 PST = 20:10 EET. 13:25 PST = 23:25 EET. 16:40 PST = 02:40 EET (next day). 19:55 PST = 05:55 EET (next day). 22:15 PST = 08:15 EET (next day). 23:05 PST = 09:05 EET (next day).
How to check
Each line shows how a time with minutes is carried across. Only the hour moves. Minutes pass through unchanged, which makes this pair easy to check by eye. These rows use the standard (winter) gap; on the dates listed in the period section the gap is different.
The rhythm of the day in EET
Even-numbered PST hours seen from EET
06:00 PST = 16:00 EET (afternoon). 08:00 PST = 18:00 EET (evening). 10:00 PST = 20:00 EET (evening). 12:00 PST = 22:00 EET (night). 14:00 PST = 00:00 EET (night). 16:00 PST = 02:00 EET (night). 18:00 PST = 04:00 EET (night). 20:00 PST = 06:00 EET (early morning). 22:00 PST = 08:00 EET (morning).
Reading the labels
For every second hour of the PST day the list gives the EET time and a word for the part of the day there. Use it to decide whether a request to convert PST to EET gives a polite hour. Read these rows as standard-time values and check the period section for dates where the difference changes.
Before you convert PST to EET: a short checklist
Before the sum
Read the labels
Pacific Standard Time is UTC−8; the letters PST are also used for the Philippines and for Pakistan, which are not covered here. Egypt shares EET but changes its clocks on different dates from Europe.
Use a 24-hour clock
Turn a.m. and p.m. into the 24-hour form first: 4:30 p.m. is 16:30 and 12:00 a.m. is 00:00. For example, 09:15 PST becomes 19:15 EET.
Then
The operation
Add 10 hours. If the result passes midnight, correct the date: readings from 14:00 fall on the next date.
A second example
Late in the evening, 22:40 PST becomes 08:40 EET (next day).
Common slips when you convert PST to EET
Subtracting instead of adding
Because EET runs ahead of PST, the result must be a later clock reading. An earlier one points to a subtraction.
Losing the date
A PST time from 14:00 moves to the next date. If the date stays put, the answer is a full day out.
The standard figure in the wrong weeks
On some dates in 2026 the distance between PST and EET differs from the usual one, so read the period list before you apply it.
Confusing the abbreviation
Do not confuse PST with Philippine or Pakistan time; this converter means the Pacific coast of North America. Cairo uses EET too, with a summer period that does not match the European one.
Questions and answers
By how much do PST and EET differ?
10 hours, and EET is ahead of PST. That is the standard figure; on some dates in 2026 it differs, as the period list shows.
What do I do to convert PST to EET?
Add 10 hours to the PST time, then fix the date if the result passes midnight.
How much is 21:45 PST in EET?
07:45 EET on the next day in the standard period.
Does the answer change during the year?
Yes, on some dates; the period list above shows which.
Is the time I enter sent anywhere?
No. The calculation runs in your browser.
