Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is 1 hour behind British Summer Time (BST). To convert GMT to BST, you need to add 1 hour. For example, if it is noon GMT, it will be 1:00 PM BST.
When planning meetings between participants in GMT and BST, be mindful of the 1-hour difference. It’s advisable to schedule meetings during overlapping business hours; for example, if it’s convenient for participants in GMT from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, this translates to 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM in BST. This ensures that all parties can attend without conflicts.
To manually convert GMT to BST, take your GMT and add 1 hour. For instance:
If it’s 8:00 AM in GMT, adding 1 hour gives you 9:00 AM in BST.
This method can be applied at any hour of the day.
Yes, daylight saving time directly impacts this conversion. BST is observed during the summer months, starting on the last Sunday in March and ending on the last Sunday in October. During this period, clocks are set forward by one hour, making BST UTC+1.
You can use the time zone converter available at iformat.io. This tool lets you input any GMT and instantly receive the corresponding BST time, simplifying the conversion process.
