When the difference changes
Pacific Time and Central European 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 – March 14, 2027Central European Time is 9 hours ahead
- March 14, 2027 – March 27, 2027Central European Time is 8 hours ahead
- March 27, 2027 – October 30, 2027Central European Time is 9 hours ahead
- October 30, 2027 – November 7, 2027Central European Time is 8 hours ahead
- November 7, 2027 – onwardsCentral European Time is 9 hours ahead
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

Scheduling between the two
There is no overlap between a nine-to-six working day in Los Angeles and one in Paris — the gap is too wide. A call has to sit early or late for one side. Early morning in Los Angeles is the usual compromise, since that is late afternoon or evening in Paris.
Pacific Time (PST) is used in San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas and Vancouver
