PST (Pacific Standard Time) is 17 hours behind JST (Japan Standard Time). This means when it's 12:00 PM in Tokyo (JST), it's 7:00 PM in Los Angeles (PST).
The best time to call from JST to PST is during overlapping business hours. For JST callers, schedule between 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM JST 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. Japan Standard Time (UTC+9) and Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8 (PST) / UTC-7 (PDT)) may have different DST schedules.
JST includes cities like Tokyo. PST includes cities like Los Angeles. 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.
