WET to HST Converter

Converting Western European Time to Hawaii Standard Time

Western European Time (WET) and Hawaii Standard Time (HST) are separated by a 10 hours time difference. HST is 10 hours behind WET. WET is UTC+0, used in Portugal, United Kingdom, Ireland, while HST is UTC-10, used in United States.

When converting from WET to HST, the key reference points to remember are: 9:00 AM WET equals 11:00 PM HST, 12:00 PM noon WET equals 2:00 AM HST, and 5:00 PM WET equals 7:00 AM HST. The conversion table above shows every hour of the day mapped between these two time zones.

Scheduling Across WET and HST

For professionals scheduling meetings between WET and HST, finding overlapping business hours is essential. Standard business hours are typically 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in each time zone. Given the 10 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

WET observes Daylight Saving Time, switching to WEST (UTC+1) during summer months. HST does not observe DST, staying at UTC-10 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.
