NST and GYT examples

These examples always use NST (UTC-3:30) and GYT (UTC-4). They stay the same when you change the date or time above. The selected conversion may differ when daylight saving time applies.

NST is 30 minutes ahead of GYT.

How the time difference changes

For most of the year, NDT is 1 hour and 30 minutes ahead of GYT. At other times of the year, NST is 30 minutes ahead of GYT.

For most of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in NDT correspond to 7:30 am to 3:30 pm in GYT. At other times of the year, working hours of 9:00 am to 5:00 pm in NST correspond to 8:30 am to 4:30 pm in GYT.

Compare NST time with GYT time, including current local time, UTC offsets, time difference, daylight saving changes, working hours, and shareable meeting times.
