The current difference

Right now it is 7:06 PM Thursday in Sydney and 1:06 PM Thursday in Dubai. Dubai is 6 hours behind Sydney, which means the time there is on the same day. The offsets are read live: Sydney is on standard time and Dubai is on standard time, and the gap can change when either region changes its clocks.

Scheduling calls and meetings

The table converts common hours from Sydney to Dubai. If you work in Sydney and need to meet colleagues in Dubai, the two 9-to-5 working days overlap by about 2 hours, so check the table to find a slot that suits both sides. Where the gap is large, rotate the inconvenient time between the two teams.

Why zone differences shift

Many regions add an hour in summer, but the dates differ: the United States and Canada change on the second Sunday of March and the first Sunday of November, Europe on the last Sundays of March and October, and countries such as Pakistan, India, Japan, Singapore and the Gulf states do not change at all. For that reason the difference between two zones is not always the same number of hours all year.

All of these figures are recalculated when the page loads, so they always describe the day you open it, not the day the page was published.

How the calendar works

The Gregorian calendar has twelve months of 28 to 31 days. A normal year has 365 days and a leap year has 366, with the extra day added to February in every year divisible by four except century years that are not divisible by 400. Because 365 is one more than 52 weeks, most dates move forward one weekday each year and two after a leap day. Weeks are numbered under ISO 8601, which starts weeks on Monday and gives week 1 to the week containing the first Thursday of January.
