About New Zealand Standard Time (NZST)

New Zealand Standard Time (NZST, IANA: Pacific/Auckland) is the civil time of New Zealand mainland (North Island + South Island), set at UTC+12:00. NZST is observed in winter; New Zealand switches to New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT = UTC+13) from the last Sunday of September to the first Sunday of April per the Time Act of 1974 + Standard Time Act of 2007 (a slightly different DST schedule than Australia + most of the Northern Hemisphere). The Chatham Islands archipelago (Chatham, Pitt Islands — 800 km east of NZ mainland) uses Chatham Standard Time (CHAST = UTC+12:45) and Chatham Daylight Time (CHADT = UTC+13:45) — one of the world's only 45-minute-offset zones along with Nepal UTC+5:45 and Eucla WA UTC+8:45. NZST serves approximately 5.2 million New Zealanders. NZST is identical in offset to Fiji Time (FJT), Marshall Islands Time, Tuvalu Time, Wallis and Futuna Time. Major NZST cities: Auckland (1.7M metro — North Island), Wellington (210K city, 425K metro — capital), Christchurch (380K — South Island), Hamilton (180K), Tauranga (155K), Dunedin (135K), Queenstown (25K — tourist hub + Lord of the Rings filming locations). Affects: NZX (New Zealand Stock Exchange) trading hours, All Blacks rugby match scheduling, Hobbiton + Milford Sound tourism operating hours.
