A quick guide to ICT → BST: the time gap, the live clocks, scheduling tips, and how we keep it accurate.
How does the ICT to BST converter work?
It takes three quick steps:
- Click the ICT field on the left and pick the time you want to convert.
- The matching BST 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.
ICT vs BST: what's the time gap?
BST is 6 hours behind ICT. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just subtract 6 hours to get the other — so a call between Bangkok and London is always 6 hours apart.
What time is it in BST right now?
Right now the time in British Summer Time (BST) is Monday, June 29, 2026 · 6:54:02 PM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live BST clock.
What time is it in ICT right now?
And in Indochina Time (ICT), it’s currently Tuesday, June 30, 2026 · 12:54:02 AM. Compare the two and the 6 hours gap is easy to see.
Planning a meeting across ICT and BST?
For example, a 9:00 AM ICT meeting takes place at 3:00 AM BST. 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 ICT to BST?
The labels ICT and BST 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 ICT to BST 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 ICT to BST stays accurate for today and for any past or future date you type in.

Frequently asked questions
How many hours behind ICT is BST?
BST is 6 hours behind ICT — a fixed 6 hours difference, since both are fixed-offset labels.
What time is it in BST when it's 12:00 PM ICT?
When it's 12:00 PM (noon) ICT, it's 6:00 AM BST.
Do ICT or BST use daylight saving time?
Indochina Time (ICT) is a fixed offset with no daylight saving; British Summer Time (BST) observes daylight saving, alternating with GMT.
Why might the real-world ICT–BST difference change during the year?
The labels ICT and BST 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 ICT to GMT. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
