What time is it in Réunion?

Réunion stays on UTC+4:00 all year. Its offset from UTC never moves, so its relationship to places that do change shifts twice a year instead — which is usually why someone checks. Right now it is 4 hours ahead of UTC, and 9 hours ahead of New York.

Reunion is 9 hours ahead of New York and 12 hours ahead of Los Angeles. 9am in New York is 6:00 pm in Reunion.

To convert a specific time rather than read the current one, the converter shows both directions with the next clock change for each.

The day is 13 hours 4 minutes long in Reunion, and gaining 1 minute a day. The sun peaks within a few minutes of twelve o’clock, so Réunion’s offset fits its longitude about as closely as a whole-hour offset can.

Reunion lies inside the tropics, so the sun passes directly overhead at noon twice a year — around January 16 and November 26 in 2026, when a vertical object casts almost no shadow. Nowhere outside the tropics ever sees that. The longest day is 13 hours 24 minutes and the shortest 10 hours 52 minutes, 152 minutes apart.

Réunion’s offset has not moved once since 1970 — no daylight saving, and no change of zone.
