Does daylight saving time change the GMT–BDT difference?

How accurate is this GMT to BDT conversion?

We don’t guess. GMT and BDT 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.
