How to Convert EDT to PDT
Converting between Eastern Daylight Time and Pacific Daylight Time means accounting for a 3 hours gap — here's how to do it in under 10 seconds with no sign-up.
Pick the date and time in Eastern Daylight Time (UTC -4) that you want to convert. Hit "Now" to load the current EDT time instantly, or use "+1h" to step forward and compare.
The equivalent Pacific Daylight Time (UTC -7) time appears immediately. Since PDT is 3 hours behind of EDT, most daytime conversions stay on the same calendar day.

Why Choose Our EDT to PDT Converter
When someone in United States suggests 12:00 PM EDT, that's 9:00 AM PDT. This converter shows the overlap so both sides agree on one slot — no back-and-forth.
Late-night EDT times can land on a different date in PDT because of the 3 hours offset. The converter labels "next day" or "previous day" next to the result so you never send a message a day early or miss a deadline.
Daylight Saving adjustments can widen or narrow the EDT–PDT gap by an hour. During transition weeks many people get it wrong. This converter pulls the current UTC offsets automatically, so the result is right even on the changeover day.
Product launches, sports matches, and webinars are often announced in EDT. Convert the event time to PDT so you know exactly when to tune in — with a 3 hours difference, a morning event in United States falls during work hours in United States.
