PST to AEST Converter
Convert Pacific Time (PST/PDT) to Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT). This page uses Los Angeles time and Sydney time, so it follows daylight saving automatically: pick any date below and the conversion uses the offsets in force on that day.
PST to AEST time difference
The converter above shows the difference for the date and time you choose. Over 2026, the gap works out like this:
- AEST is 17 hours ahead of PSTMost of the year: Apr 5 to Oct 3.
- AEST is 19 hours ahead of PSTJan 1 to Mar 7, Nov 1 to Dec 31.
- AEST is 18 hours ahead of PSTMar 8 to Apr 4, Oct 4 to Oct 31.
The short periods exist because the two regions change their clocks on different dates, so for a few weeks one has moved and the other has not. Double-check any meeting booked in those weeks.
PST to AEST for a working day
Los Angeles time from 6 AM to 10 PM, converted. The two columns differ because daylight saving changes the gap between winter and summer. Bold times fall between 9 AM and 5 PM in AEST.

About these time zones
PST. Pacific Time is PST (UTC-8) in winter and PDT (UTC-7) in summer, on the same US daylight saving dates as Eastern Time. It covers Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Vancouver.
AEST. This page uses Sydney: AEST (UTC+10) from April to October and AEDT (UTC+11) during the southern summer. Brisbane stays on AEST all year, so it can be an hour behind Sydney.
Overlap. Meetings starting at 4:00 PM PST land inside a 9 to 5 working day in both zones in winter and summer.
