Frequently Asked Questions (GMT → EST)

How do I convert GMT to EST?

GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) uses the IANA timezone identifier Europe/London (standard offset +00:00), while EST (Eastern Time (US & Canada)) uses America/New_York (standard offset -05:00). 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 London and New York?

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

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

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