NZST (New Zealand Standard Time) is 2 hours ahead of AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time). This difference remains constant at 2 hours throughout the year as both regions observe daylight saving time at the same dates. This means when it's 10:00 AM in Sydney (AEST), it's 12:00 PM in Auckland (NZST).
The best time to call from AEST to NZST is between 8:00 AM and 3:00 PM AEST, which corresponds to 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM NZST. This ensures both parties are within standard business hours.
No, the time difference remains constant at 2 hours because both Australia (eastern states) and New Zealand observe daylight saving time at the same dates. AEST becomes AEDT (UTC+11) and NZST becomes NZDT (UTC+13).
AEST cities include Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. NZST cities include Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch.
In both Australia (eastern states) and New Zealand, DST starts on the first Sunday in October and ends on the first Sunday in April, keeping the 2-hour time difference consistent.
