About GST to EST Conversion

Converting time between GST and EST requires understanding their time zone offsets and any daylight saving time adjustments. GST (GST) operates at UTC+4, while EST (EST) is set to UTC-5. This means EST is 9 hours behind GST. Note that due to the time difference, the date may change. When it's 6:10 AM GST on February 4, 2026, it's 9:10 PM EST on February 3, 2026 in EST. America/New_York observes daylight saving time, switching between EST (UTC-5) and EDT (UTC-4), while Asia/Dubai does not observe daylight saving time. Use this converter to quickly find the equivalent time in EST for any time in GST, whether you're scheduling meetings, planning travel, or coordinating with teams across different time zones.
