About these time zones

AEST: Australian Eastern Standard Time

Australian Eastern Standard Time is UTC+10.

Queensland all year. New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory (Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra) use AEST from April to October and AEDT (UTC+11) the rest of the year.

EST: Eastern Standard Time

Eastern Standard Time is UTC−5.

New York, Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas, Ohio, Michigan and the rest of the East Coast, plus Ontario and Quebec in Canada. Panama, Jamaica and Cancún stay on EST all year. ET is the short form for the whole zone.

Most places on Eastern Time are on EDT (UTC−4) right now, not EST. People still say "EST" all year, so the times on this page follow the clocks and show EDT until 1 November 2026.

How the difference changes

Right now EDT is 14 hours behind AEST. From 1 November 2026, when US clocks go back, the difference becomes 15 hours. From 14 March 2027, when US clocks go forward, the difference becomes 14 hours.
