Daylight saving right now

Coordinated Universal Time

UTC is currently on UTC (UTC+00:00).

no clock change scheduled — this zone is fixed at UTC+00:00

next change: Sun, 1 Nov 2026 01:00 local → AKST (80 days)

AKDT is UTC-8, Alaska's summer clock — the same offset the lower 48 west coast uses in winter as PST, which makes Anchorage and Seattle briefly agree in spring and autumn but not in between.

AKDT to UTC — questions

What time is it in UTC when it is AKDT now?
UTC is currently 00:15 on Thursday, 13 August 2026 (UTC, UTC+00:00), while AKDT is 16:15 (UTC-08:00). That is 8 hours ahead of the source clock right now.
How many hours ahead is UTC of AKDT?
8 hours at this moment. The gap is not constant across the year: Alaska Daylight Time and Coordinated Universal Time change clocks on different dates (or one of them not at all), so a difference you hard-code in summer can be an hour wrong in winter. The table on this page is computed from the current tzdata rules, not from a fixed offset.
Is UTC on daylight saving time right now?
No. UTC is on UTC (UTC+00:00) at the moment.
Does UTC observe daylight saving time?
No. UTC stays on UTC+00:00 all year, so the difference from AKDT only moves when AKDT itself changes.
What is the best time to schedule a call between AKDT and UTC?
There are 1 hours of overlap where both sides are inside a 09:00-18:00 working day. The longest block is 09:00–10:00 AKDT, which is 17:00–18:00 UTC. Use the calendar buttons above to drop it straight into Google Calendar, Outlook or an .ics file.
Which IANA timezone name should I use for UTC in code?
Use UTC. Abbreviations like UTC are ambiguous and not resolvable by most libraries — Python's ZoneInfo, Java's ZoneId, Go's time.LoadLocation and JavaScript's Intl all expect the IANA name. Hard-coding UTC+00:00 instead will be wrong the moment the rules change.
