Frequently Asked Questions (EST → GST)

How do I convert EST to GST?

EST (Eastern Time (US & Canada)) uses the IANA timezone identifier America/New_York (standard offset -05:00), while GST (Gulf Standard Time) uses Asia/Dubai (standard offset +04:00). Use the interactive slider or the 24-hour table above to convert any hour accurately with automatic Daylight Saving Time (DST) adjustment.

What are the best meeting hours between New York and Dubai?

Check the rows highlighted with "Best Meeting Overlap" in the 24-hour table above, where both EST and GST fall within standard 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM working hours.

Does EST to GST account for Daylight Saving Time (DST)?

Yes. Castov uses the browser's native IANA tzdb engine (America/New_York and Asia/Dubai), which automatically applies official Daylight Saving Time transitions.
