When the difference changes

Australian Eastern Time and Philippine Time do not change their clocks on the same dates, so the gap between them is not the same all year. Most converters show only today’s figure. These are the periods ahead:

Now – October 4, 2026Philippine Time is 2 hours behind
October 4, 2026 – April 4, 2027Philippine Time is 3 hours behind
April 4, 2027 – October 3, 2027Philippine Time is 2 hours behind
October 3, 2027 – onwardsPhilippine Time is 3 hours behind

Periods shorter than a day are not listed. Each zone changes at its own local time, so on a date when both move there are a few hours when the gap is briefly something else.

Daylight saving

Australian Eastern Time

Sunday, October 4, 2026

Clocks go forward one hour — 2:00 am becomes 3:00 am local time, and the zone is on AEDT after that.

Philippine Time

No clock changes

Philippine Time stays on PHT all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Scheduling between the two

Australian Eastern Time (AEST) is used in Melbourne, Canberra and Brisbane. Queensland stays on AEST all year while the southern states move to AEDT.
