Frequently asked questions

Why is the difference sometimes not a whole number of hours?

Several regions use 30- or 45-minute offsets — India (UTC+5:30) and Nepal (UTC+5:45), for example — so the difference can include minutes.

Is the difference always the same?

No. When one location observes daylight saving and the other doesn’t, the difference changes by an hour during part of the year.
