About Atlantic Standard Time (AST)

Atlantic Standard Time (AST, IANA: America/Halifax, America/Puerto_Rico) is the time zone for the Canadian Maritime provinces and most of the Caribbean, set at UTC-4:00. AST is observed in: Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Labrador (partially), Newfoundland's Labrador portion, eastern Quebec, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Bermuda, Anguilla, Antigua, Aruba, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, Curaçao, Dominica, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela (since 2007). Canadian Maritime provinces observe AST in winter and switch to ADT = UTC-3:00 in summer per the Energy Policy Act-aligned Canadian schedule. The Caribbean territories (Puerto Rico, USVI, Bermuda) and US territories observe AST year-round without DST per their territorial governments. AST is the same offset as EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) during US summer months, so Halifax and New York are on the same clock in summer but Halifax is one hour ahead in winter.

About Colombia Time (COT)

Colombia Time (COT, IANA: America/Bogota) is the official civil time of the Republic of Colombia, set at UTC-5:00 year-round. Colombia abolished Daylight Saving Time in 1993 after a brief experimental DST period (1992-1993), so COT is observed without seasonal change since then. COT serves approximately 52 million people across Colombia's 32 departments + Bogotá Capital District. Major cities: Bogotá (8M city, 11M metro — capital), Medellín (2.5M city, 4M metro), Cali (2.3M), Barranquilla (1.3M), Cartagena (1M), Cúcuta (700K), Bucaramanga (600K). COT is identical in offset to Eastern Standard Time (EST) US, Cuban Standard Time (CST-Cu), Peru Time (PET), and Ecuador Time (ECT). The San Andrés and Providencia archipelago in the Caribbean Sea (closer to Nicaragua than to mainland Colombia) also observes COT. Affects: Bolsa de Valores de Colombia (BVC) trading hours, Ecopetrol oil-pipeline operations, Café de Colombia harvest-season coordination, and Cartagena de Indias cruise-ship port arrivals scheduling.
