Daylight saving right now

Australian Western Standard Time

Australia/Perth is currently on AWST (UTC+08:00).

no clock change scheduled — this zone is fixed at UTC+08:00

AWST is UTC+8 with no daylight saving — Western Australia rejected DST in a 2009 referendum.

Greenwich Mean Time

Etc/GMT is on GMT (UTC+00:00).

no clock change scheduled — fixed at UTC+00:00

GMT is UTC+0 and never shifts. The UK observes GMT in winter only — in summer it is on BST (UTC+1), so "GMT" on a British invite dated in July usually means BST.

Every hour as its own page

GMT to AWST — questions

What time is it in AWST when it is GMT now?
AWST is currently 08:15 on Thursday, 13 August 2026 (AWST, UTC+08:00), while GMT is 00:15 (UTC+00:00). That is 8 hours ahead of the source clock right now.
How many hours ahead is AWST of GMT?
8 hours at this moment. The gap is not constant across the year: Greenwich Mean Time and Australian Western Standard 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 AWST on daylight saving time right now?
No. Australia/Perth is on AWST (UTC+08:00) at the moment.
Does AWST observe daylight saving time?
No. Australia/Perth stays on UTC+08:00 all year, so the difference from GMT only moves when GMT itself changes.
What is the best time to schedule a call between GMT and AWST?
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 GMT, which is 17:00–18:00 AWST. 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 AWST in code?
Use Australia/Perth. Abbreviations like AWST 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+08:00 instead will be wrong the moment the rules change.
