About converting GMT to GST

Greenwich Mean Time (Greenwich) and Gulf Time (Dubai) (Dubai) are in different time zones, so a meeting, call or stream that's convenient in one may be early or late in the other. The clocks above update live and account for daylight saving automatically, so the time difference you see is the real one for today — not a fixed number that goes stale twice a year.

To plan across the two, type a time into the GMT box (or tap a quick preset) and read the GST equivalent, including a "next day" or "previous day" note when the conversion crosses midnight. For any other pair of zones or cities, use the full timezone converter.

GMT vs GST: the time difference through the year

The difference stays the same all year: GST is 4 h ahead of GMT.

Daylight saving

Neither GMT nor GST uses daylight saving, so this conversion never changes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the time difference between GMT and GST?

Enter a time in the GMT box and the equivalent GST time appears instantly, adjusted for the current offset between the two zones — including a note if it lands on the previous or next day.
Is this GMT to GST converter accurate with daylight saving?
Yes. It uses your browser's built-in time-zone database (the IANA zones behind Greenwich and Dubai), which tracks daylight-saving changes automatically, so the current times and difference are correct.
