BST and SST examples
These examples always use BST (UTC+1) and SST (UTC-11). They stay the same when you change the date or time above. The selected conversion may differ when daylight saving time applies.
BST is 12 hours ahead of SST.
How the time difference changes
For most of the year, BST is 12 hours ahead of SST. From Oct 25, 2026 to Mar 28, 2027, and from Oct 31, 2027 to Mar 26, 2028, GMT is 11 hours ahead of SST.
For most of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in BST correspond to 9:00 pm (previous day) to 6:00 am in SST. At other times of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in GMT correspond to 10:00 pm (previous day) to 7:00 am in SST.For most of the year, working hours of 09:00 to 18:00 in BST correspond to 21:00 (previous day) to 06:00 in SST. At other times of the year, working hours of 09:00 to 18:00 in GMT correspond to 22:00 (previous day) to 07:00 in SST.
Compare BST time with SST time, including current local time, UTC offsets, time difference, daylight saving changes, working hours, and shareable meeting times.

British Summer Time
Offset: BST is 1 hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Countries using this time zone: Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey, United Kingdom
Principal Cities: The largest city in the BST time zone is London in the United Kingdom, with about 8.962 million people. Other major cities in this time zone include Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester, Sheffield.
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) originally referred to the mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London. It is now often used to refer to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when this is viewed as a time zone, and in casual use the two are the same. In the military, GMT is known as Zulu time. Greenwich Mean Time was the same as Universal Time (UT), a standard astronomical concept used in many technical fields, until the introduction of UTC in 1972.
Current time in the United Kingdom: UK time now
