PST to PKT Converter

Converting Pacific Standard Time to Pakistan Standard Time

Pacific Standard Time (PST) and Pakistan Standard Time (PKT) are separated by a 13 hours time difference. PKT is 13 hours ahead of PST. PST is UTC-8, used in United States, Canada, while PKT is UTC+5, used in Pakistan.

When converting from PST to PKT, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM PST equals 10:00 PM PKT, 12:00 PM noon PST equals 1:00 AM PKT, and 5:00 PM PST equals 6:00 AM PKT. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.

Scheduling Across PST and PKT

For professionals scheduling meetings between PST and PKT, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 13 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

PST observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to PDT (UTC-7) during summer months. PKT does not observe DST, staying at UTC+5 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.
