UTC time

Australian Central Western Standard Time (ACWST) is a time zone that operates on UTC+8:45, which is 8 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). It is used by a small part of Australia.

ACWST is observed in a small unofficial region on the border between Western Australia and South Australia. This region includes the towns of Eucla, Caiguna, and Madura, along the Nullarbor Plain. It is not officially recognized by the Australian government, but it is locally observed.

No, ACWST does not observe Daylight Saving Time (DST). The time remains UTC+8:45 year-round.

<strong>New York (EST/EDT):</strong> ACWST is 13 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Standard Time (EST, UTC-5:00) and 12 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, UTC-4:00).<br><br> <strong>London (GMT/BST):</strong> ACWST is 8 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0) and 7 hours and 45 minutes ahead during British Summer Time (BST, UTC+1:00).<br><br> <strong>Tokyo (JST):</strong> ACWST is 45 minutes behind Japan Standard Time (JST, UTC+9:00).<br><br> <strong>Sydney (AEST/AEDT):</strong> ACWST is 1 hour and 15 minutes behind Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST, UTC+10:00) and 2 hours and 15 minutes behind Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT, UTC+11:00).

No, ACWST (UTC+8:45) is unique to the small region in Australia and is not shared by any other country. However, time zones with similar offsets, like UTC+8:00 or UTC+9:00, are used in nearby countries such as Indonesia, Singapore, and Japan.
