Smart tips for cross-time scheduling
Mind the big gap
Manila is UTC+8 and New York follows America/New_York (UTC−5 or −4 during DST). Typical overlap windows are tight — plan for early mornings or late evenings depending on direction.
Use IANA for recurring events
Schedule recurring meetings with IANA zones (Asia/Manila / America/New_York) so DST transitions in New York are applied automatically.
Work-friendly window
Late afternoon in Manila often pairs with New York morning — a practical slot for business calls that avoids very late or very early hours.
Quick cultural note
The Philippines observes a single national standard time (Philippine Standard Time, UTC+8) and does not use daylight saving, while New York does — so most shifts come from the American side.
Frequently asked questions
How many hours apart are Manila and New York?
Manila (Asia/Manila) is UTC+8. New York (America/New_York) is typically UTC−5 (EST) or UTC−4 (EDT) during daylight saving — so the offset is usually +13 or +12 hours from New York to Manila, depending on DST.
Will my recurring meeting adjust when New York changes clocks?
Yes — when you schedule using the America/New_York IANA zone, the tool applies DST rules so recurring events shift correctly on DST transitions.
Can I paste an IANA code directly?
Yes. The tool parses city names, common abbreviations, and IANA identifiers like Asia/Manila and America/New_York.
Does the tool show multiple output formats?
It does. Choose from 12-hour, 24-hour, ISO, or a custom format to copy or share times in the layout you need.
Is the live clock accurate?
Live mode syncs to a precise time source and updates destination clocks in real time. Custom times are computed deterministically from the chosen instant.

How it works (technical)
- User input parsed as city name, abbreviation, or IANA zone (e.g., "Manila", "MNL", "Asia/Manila").
- Origin instant converted to UTC; destination zone (America/New_York) rules applied to compute local time and offset.
- DST rules are evaluated from the destination IANA zone so seasonal changes are reflected automatically.
- Multiple display formats and human-friendly time-segment labels are derived from the same underlying instant.
