EEST to EDT Converter
Convert Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) to Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) in one step. Because eDT is 7 hours behind EEST, the math is a fixed 7 hours shift. Adjust the time or date and watch it update.
Daylight saving notes
In the European Union and the UK, summer time runs from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. That affects Eastern European Summer Time (EEST).
In the United States and Canada, daylight saving time runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. That affects Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).

This chart uses the fixed EEST and EDT offsets; the live converter above follows current daylight saving.
Convert EEST to EDT Time Zone
Everything you need for EEST to EDT — the difference, the current times, and how to plan around it.
How does the EEST to EDT converter work?
It takes three quick steps:
- Click the EEST field on the left and pick the time you want to convert.
- The matching EDT time updates on the right automatically — there’s no button to press.
- Need a different day? Click the date field and the result follows, rolling over if it crosses midnight.
How many hours apart are EEST and EDT?
EDT is 7 hours behind EEST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 7 hours to get the other — so a call between Athens and New York is always 7 hours apart.
What's the current time in EDT?
Right now the time in Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 1:53:59 PM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live EDT clock.
And what time is it in EEST?
And in Eastern European Summer Time (EEST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 8:53:59 PM. Compare the two and the 7 hours gap is easy to see.
Planning a meeting across EEST and EDT?
For example, a 9:00 AM EEST meeting takes place at 2:00 AM EDT. 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.
Does daylight saving time change the EEST–EDT difference?
The labels EEST and EDT 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 7 hours gap usually holds steady right through the year.
How accurate is this EEST to EDT conversion?
We don’t guess. EEST and EDT times are worked out from the official IANA time zone database, the trusted standard that operating systems use worldwide. Because daylight-saving rules and regional offsets do change over time, we track those updates rather than relying on a fixed number — which is exactly where many converters slip up.

What time is it in EDT when it's 12:00 PM EEST?

Do EEST or EDT use daylight saving time?
Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) observes daylight saving, alternating with EET; Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) observes daylight saving, alternating with EST.
Why might the real-world EEST–EDT difference change during the year?
The labels EEST and EDT are fixed offsets, so this converter is always exact. But Eastern European Summer Time's region switches between standard and summer time, so for part of the year you may actually want EET to EDT. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
