How the calculator works out the difference

The tool uses the time zones of the international IANA database, which your browser already knows, so the difference is correct for the date you open it and follows each country's daylight saving rules. Nothing is sent to a server, and the time comes from your device clock; if that clock is wrong, the result will be too.

Daylight saving time in Israel

Summer time in Israel starts on the last Friday of March and ends on the last Sunday of October. In 2026 it started on 27 March and ends on 25 October; in 2027 it starts on 26 March and ends on 31 October. In summer Israel is on UTC+3, in winter UTC+2. Anyone who plans with a fixed gap can get it wrong in the weeks when the two countries do not switch on the same day.

Weeks when the difference changes

The gap with the United States and Europe is not constant, because the switch dates differ. The table shows the short periods in 2026 and 2027 when the gap differs from usual, as calculated from the time zones.

Daylight saving rules are set by each country's law. Morocco, for example, turns its clocks back an hour during Ramadan, and Iran and Egypt have changed their rules in recent years. For an important meeting, check the exact date in the calculator.

Planning a meeting across time zones

Set working hours for Israel and for the destination, and the blue bar shows which hours of the day, in Israel time, suit both sides. With New York and 9:00 to 18:00 on both sides, the overlap is two hours, 16:00 to 18:00 in Israel. With Europe almost the whole working day overlaps; with the United States 2 to 4 hours remain in the afternoon; with East Asia and Australia the overlap is small, so Israelis usually meet early in the morning. Write the time for both sides in the invitation.

For flights to the same destinations there is a table of flight times from Israel, which also shows the time difference for each destination.
