About UTC to PST Conversion

Converting time between UTC and PST requires understanding their time zone offsets and any daylight saving time adjustments. UTC (UTC) operates at UTC+0, while PST (PST) is set to UTC-8. This means PST is 8 hours behind UTC. Note that due to the time difference, the date may change. When it's 3:21 AM UTC on February 4, 2026, it's 7:21 PM PST on February 3, 2026 in PST. America/Los_Angeles observes daylight saving time, switching between PST (UTC-8) and PDT (UTC-7), while UTC does not observe daylight saving time. Use this converter to quickly find the equivalent time in PST for any time in UTC, whether you're scheduling meetings, planning travel, or coordinating with teams across different time zones.
