EET to CST Converter

Converting Eastern European Time to Central Standard Time

Eastern European Time (EET) and Central Standard Time (CST) are separated by a 8 hours time difference. CST is 8 hours behind EET. EET is UTC+2, used in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, while CST is UTC-6, used in United States, Canada, Mexico.

When converting from EET to CST, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM EET equals 1:00 AM CST, 12:00 PM noon EET equals 4:00 AM CST, and 5:00 PM EET equals 9:00 AM CST. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.

Scheduling Across EET and CST

For professionals scheduling meetings between EET and CST, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 8 hours difference, the window of overlap may be limited, making early morning or late evening calls necessary for one party. Use the highlighted working hours in the conversion table above to quickly identify suitable meeting times.

Daylight Saving Time Considerations

EET observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to EEST (UTC+3) during summer months. CST observes DST, switching to CDT (UTC-5). During DST transitions, the time difference between these zones may temporarily change by 1 hour. Always verify the current offset during spring and fall transition periods.
