What is the time difference between BST and ICT?

ICT is 6 hours ahead of BST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just add 6 hours to get the other — so a call between London and Bangkok is always 6 hours apart.

What time is it in ICT right now?

Right now the time in Indochina Time (ICT) is Tuesday, June 30, 2026 · 12:53:59 AM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live ICT clock.

What time is it in BST right now?

And in British Summer Time (BST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 6:53:59 PM. Compare the two and the 6 hours gap is easy to see.

When is a good time to schedule a BST to ICT meeting?

For example, a 9:00 AM BST meeting takes place at 3:00 PM ICT. The trick is to aim for a slot that lands inside normal working hours on both sides. Once you’ve found a time, hit Share on the converter to copy a link with the time built in — easy to send to a colleague. Juggling three or more zones? The meeting planner highlights the hours that overlap for everyone.

How does daylight saving affect BST to ICT?

The labels BST and ICT are fixed offsets, so the result on this page is always exact. One side switches between standard and summer time while the other stays put, so the real-world gap can shift by an hour for part of the year. It's worth checking which label a region is actually using before you lock in a time.

Why can you trust this BST to ICT 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 BST to ICT stays accurate for today and for any past or future date you type in.

Frequently asked questions

How many hours ahead of BST is ICT?

ICT is 6 hours ahead of BST — a fixed 6 hours difference, since both are fixed-offset labels.

What time is it in ICT when it's 12:00 PM BST?

When it's 12:00 PM (noon) BST, it's 6:00 PM ICT.

Do BST or ICT use daylight saving time?

British Summer Time (BST) observes daylight saving, alternating with GMT; Indochina Time (ICT) is a fixed offset with no daylight saving.

Why might the real-world BST–ICT difference change during the year?

The labels BST and ICT are fixed offsets, so this converter is always exact. But British Summer Time's region switches between standard and summer time, so for part of the year you may actually want GMT to ICT. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
