About Time in Toronto

Toronto runs on Eastern Time, the same zone as the U.S. East Coast — see our EST/EDT time page for the full details.

Toronto shares its overlap pattern with the rest of the US East Coast: a comfortable match with other American time zones, a narrow afternoon window with Europe, and almost none with East Asia or Australia. The Meeting Planner can confirm exact hours against any zone.

• Country: Canada
• UTC offset: UTC-5 (EST) / UTC-4 (EDT)
• Daylight saving: Canada's Eastern zone follows the same daylight saving schedule as the U.S.
