Paris → New York Time Converter
Convert Paris (CET/CEST) to New York (ET) and multiple destinations. Use City/IANA/Abbreviation selectors, toggle Live ticking clocks or a Custom origin time, select display formats, and copy exact formatted timestamps for clear scheduling.
Choose selector mode & targets
Pick City, IANA, or Abbreviation mode. Select Paris as origin and add one or more destinations such as New York and other US cities.
Live clocks or a custom origin time
Toggle Live to watch ticking destination clocks, or enter a custom origin time (past or future) to convert simultaneously for many destinations.
Select display formats
Choose one or more date/time formats (24h, 12h, ISO, full date, or custom) so the copied strings fit your calendar or messaging style.
Use per-destination quick actions
For each destination: Swap origin/destination, Copy the formatted time string, open DST Info, or jump to the Jet-Lag planner for that timezone.
Features

Practical Tips
Typical workable window for calls
A commonly useful overlap is New York 08:00–11:00 ET ↔ Paris 14:00–17:00 CET/CEST. Use this range for same-day meetings that avoid after-hours for both sides.
Webinars & announcements
If you need live participation across both regions, consider late-morning Paris slots (local) which fall in early morning New York — these capture both European midday and US early-bird attendees.
Date handling — show both dates
Because Paris is ahead, converted times can fall on the next calendar day in New York. Paste both local date + time (e.g., “Mon 14:00 CEST / Mon 08:00 ET”) to avoid confusion.
DST transition note (brief)
Paris and New York observe DST but on slightly different schedules at times of year — during those brief switch windows the numeric offset can vary by an hour. Use the Info action to confirm current DST status for any destination.
FAQs
Is Paris always six hours ahead of New York?
For most of the year Paris is 6 hours ahead of New York (Paris UTC+1/UTC+2 vs New York UTC−5/UTC−4). Short transition periods around DST changes can temporarily alter the offset by one hour — check Info for live status.
How should I paste times into invites for transatlantic meetings?
Include both local date and time plus the timezone abbreviation (e.g., “Tue 14:00 CEST / Tue 08:00 ET”). Use the Copy action to paste correctly formatted strings and avoid manual errors.
Can I convert a single Paris time into multiple US timezones at once?
Yes — select Paris as origin, add New York and other US destinations, then use Live or Custom mode to produce side-by-side converted times for all selected locations.
How It Works
- Accepts one origin and multiple destinations in City, IANA, or Abbreviation modes.
- Applies tzdb offsets so Live clocks tick in real time and Custom mode converts a static origin time across destinations.
- Displays formatted local date/time, timezone labels, numeric offsets, and a human-friendly slot indicator; flags date-rollover when applicable.
- Offers per-destination quick actions: Swap, Copy formatted time, Info (DST details), and Jet-Lag planner link.
