NZST (New Zealand Standard Time) is 2 hours ahead of AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time). This means when it's 12:00 PM in Sydney (AEST), it's 2:00 PM in Auckland (NZST).
The best time to call from AEST to NZST is during overlapping business hours. For AEST callers, schedule between 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM AEST to ensure both parties are within standard business hours.
The time difference may change during daylight saving transitions if one region observes DST while the other doesn't. Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10 (AEST) / UTC+11 (AEDT)) and New Zealand Standard Time (UTC+12 (NZST) / UTC+13 (NZDT)) may have different DST schedules.
AEST includes cities like Sydney. NZST includes cities like Auckland. Both time zones cover important business and cultural centers.
In 2025, DST in North America starts on March 9 at 2:00 AM and ends on November 2 at 2:00 AM. Other regions may have different DST schedules or not observe DST at all.
