How to Convert Pacific Daylight Time to Japan Standard Time
Formula
To convert Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) to Japan Standard Time (JST): Convert PDT to JST
About Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)
Pacific Daylight Time (PDT, IANA: America/Los_Angeles during DST window) is the summer-time variant of PST, set at UTC-7:00 — observed from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November per the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which extended the US DST window by ~4 weeks compared to the prior Uniform Time Act of 1966 schedule. PDT is the same offset as Mountain Standard Time (MST), creating a confusing situation where Arizona (which doesn't observe DST and stays on MST year-round) shares the same clock as California during summer months but is one hour behind during winter. PDT is used by ~50 million people in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, British Columbia, Yukon, and Baja California Norte. Affects: West-Coast NYSE/Nasdaq market open shifts to 06:30 PDT, professional sports West Coast game-time broadcasts to East Coast PDT prime time, and US Pacific Fleet operations from Naval Base San Diego.
About Japan Standard Time (JST)
Japan Standard Time (JST, IANA: Asia/Tokyo) is the civil time of Japan, set at UTC+9:00 year-round (no DST). Japan observed Daylight Saving Time only briefly during American Occupation (1948-1951) and discontinued it after the Treaty of San Francisco. JST is also called Nippon Hyōjunji (日本標準時) and is officially maintained by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) — Japan operates a sophisticated atomic-clock-based timekeeping system at NICT Koganei facility with caesium beam frequency standards CSF-2 + Sr-87 optical lattice clock. JST is identical in offset to Korea Standard Time (KST), Yakutsk Time (Russian Far East), Western Indonesian Time WIT (eastern Indonesia), and Palau Time (PWT). JST serves Japan's approximately 125 million residents across 47 prefectures. Major JST cities: Tokyo (14M city, 37M metro — the world's largest metropolitan area by population), Yokohama (3.8M — Tokyo bay metro), Osaka (2.7M, Kansai region 19M metro), Nagoya (2.3M, Chukyo region 9.5M metro), Sapporo (1.9M — Hokkaido capital), Fukuoka (1.6M — Kyushu hub), Kobe (1.5M), Kawasaki (1.5M), Saitama (1.3M). Affects: TSE (Tokyo Stock Exchange) trading hours 09:00-15:00 JST, Tokyo Sumo Grand Tournaments, Shinkansen bullet-train scheduling, Tokyo Disney + USJ park operating hours.
