About Pacific Standard Time (PST)

Pacific Standard Time (PST, IANA: America/Los_Angeles) is the standard time zone for the US West Coast and Canadian westernmost provinces, set at UTC-8:00. PST is observed from the first Sunday in November to the second Sunday in March per the Uniform Time Act of 1966; the region switches to Pacific Daylight Time (PDT = UTC-7:00) the rest of the year. PST is used by ~50 million people in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada (most), British Columbia, Yukon Territory, and the Mexican states of Baja California Norte. Major cities: Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Vancouver BC. PST is the time zone of US tech hubs (Silicon Valley, Seattle, Vancouver) — global software-release coordination, Big-Tech corporate-earnings calls, Hollywood production schedules, and NYSE/Nasdaq market hours (PST 06:30-13:00) all reference PST/PDT. Mexico abolished DST nationwide in 2022 except for border zones, complicating Baja conversions.
