EET to AST Converter
This page converts Eastern European Time (EET) to Atlantic Standard Time (AST). AST is 6 hours behind EET, so a meeting at one time slides predictably to the other. Edit the time or date to begin.
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 Time (EET).
In the United States and Canada, daylight saving time runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. That affects Atlantic Standard Time (AST).
EET to AST conversion chart
For example, a 9:00 AM EET meeting takes place at 3:00 AM AST. Concretely, when Athens (EET) and Halifax (AST) set up a call, aST is 6 hours behind EET.

Convert EET to AST Time Zone
Below are the answers people search for most when converting Eastern European Time (EET) to Atlantic Standard Time (AST).
How does the EET to AST converter work?
It takes three quick steps:
- Click the EET field on the left and pick the time you want to convert.
- The matching AST 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.
What is the time difference between EET and AST?
AST is 6 hours behind EET. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 6 hours to get the other — so a call between Athens and Halifax is always 6 hours apart.
What's the current time in AST?
Right now the time in Atlantic Standard Time (AST) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 1:53:59 PM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live AST clock.
And what time is it in EET?
And in Eastern European Time (EET), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 7:53:59 PM. Compare the two and the 6 hours gap is easy to see.
Planning a meeting across EET and AST?
For example, a 9:00 AM EET meeting takes place at 3:00 AM AST. 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 EET–AST difference?
The labels EET and AST 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 6 hours gap usually holds steady right through the year.
How accurate is this EET to AST conversion?
We don’t guess. EET and AST 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.

Frequently asked questions
How many hours behind EET is AST?
AST is 6 hours behind EET — a fixed 6 hours difference, since both are fixed-offset labels.
What time is it in AST when it's 12:00 PM EET?
When it's 12:00 PM (noon) EET, it's 6:00 AM AST.
Do EET or AST use daylight saving time?
Eastern European Time (EET) observes daylight saving, alternating with EEST; Atlantic Standard Time (AST) observes daylight saving, alternating with ADT.
Why might the real-world EET–AST difference change during the year?
The labels EET and AST are fixed offsets, so this converter is always exact. But Eastern European Time's region switches between standard and summer time, so for part of the year you may actually want EEST to AST. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
