AEST vs EET: what's the time gap?

EET is 8 hours behind AEST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 8 hours to get the other — so a call between Sydney and Athens is always 8 hours apart.

The meeting planner highlights the hours that overlap for everyone.

How does daylight saving affect AEST to EET?

The labels AEST and EET are fixed offsets, so the result on this page is always exact. Both regions move their clocks for daylight saving on roughly the same weekends, so the 8 hours gap usually holds steady right through the year.

Why can you trust this AEST to EET converter?

Every conversion here is calculated from the IANA time zone database — the same source your phone, computer, and browser rely on. Plenty of tools hard-code a single offset, which quietly goes wrong whenever a region changes its rules or flips for daylight saving. We follow the real rules instead, so AEST to EET stays accurate for today and for any past or future date you type in.

Frequently asked questions

What time is it in EET when it's 12:00 PM AEST?

Do AEST or EET use daylight saving time?

Why might the real-world AEST–EET difference change during the year?

The labels AEST and EET are fixed offsets, so this converter is always exact. But Australian Eastern Standard Time's region switches between standard and summer time, so for part of the year you may actually want AEDT to EET. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
