Converting Mountain Standard Time to Coordinated Universal Time

Mountain Standard Time (MST) and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) are separated by a 7 hours time difference. UTC is 7 hours ahead of MST. MST is UTC-7, used in United States, Canada, while UTC is UTC+0.

When converting from MST to UTC, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM MST equals 4:00 PM UTC, 12:00 PM noon MST equals 7:00 PM UTC, and 5:00 PM MST equals 12:00 AM UTC. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.

Scheduling Across MST and UTC

For professionals scheduling meetings between MST and UTC, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 7 hours difference, the window of overlap may be limited. Use the highlighted working hours in the conversion table above to quickly identify suitable meeting times.

Daylight Saving Time Considerations

MST observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to MDT (UTC-6) during summer months. UTC does not observe DST, staying at UTC+0 year-round. 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.
