Converting Coordinated Universal Time to Mountain Standard Time

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

When converting from UTC to MST, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM UTC equals 2:00 AM MST, 12:00 PM noon UTC equals 5:00 AM MST, and 5:00 PM UTC equals 10:00 AM MST. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.

Scheduling Across UTC and MST

For professionals scheduling meetings between UTC and MST, 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

UTC does not observe Daylight Saving Time, maintaining UTC+0 year-round. MST observes DST, switching to MDT (UTC-6). 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.
