What is MST in BST?
British Time is 7 hours ahead
Mountain Time is on UTC−6:00 and British Time is on UTC+1:00 right now. Both are on daylight saving, so their clocks read MDT and BST. The gap changes during the year — see below.

When the difference changes
Mountain Time and British 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 25, 2026British Time is 7 hours ahead
- October 25, 2026 – November 1, 2026British Time is 6 hours ahead
- November 1, 2026 – March 14, 2027British Time is 7 hours ahead
- March 14, 2027 – March 28, 2027British Time is 6 hours ahead
- March 28, 2027 – onwardsBritish Time is 7 hours ahead
Periods shorter than a day are not listed: both zones change at 2am in their own local time, so there are a few hours on each transition date when the gap is briefly something else.
