NST vs AWST: what's the time gap?
AWST is 11 hours and 30 minutes ahead of NST. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just add 11 hours 30 min to get the other — so a call between St. John's and Perth is always 11 hours 30 min apart.

Right now the time in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST) is Tuesday, June 30, 2026 · 1:53:58 AM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live AWST clock.
And what time is it in NST?
And in Newfoundland Standard Time (NST), it’s currently Monday, June 29, 2026 · 2:23:58 PM. Compare the two and the 11 hours 30 min gap is easy to see.
What's the best time for a NST–AWST call?
For example, a 9:00 AM NST meeting takes place at 8:30 PM AWST. 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 NST–AWST difference?
The labels NST and AWST 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.
How accurate is this NST to AWST conversion?
We don’t guess. NST and AWST 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 ahead of NST is AWST?
AWST is 11 hours and 30 minutes ahead of NST — a fixed 11 hours and 30 minutes difference, since both are fixed-offset labels.
What time is it in AWST when it's 12:00 PM NST?
When it's 12:00 PM (noon) NST, it's 11:30 PM AWST.
Do NST or AWST use daylight saving time?
Newfoundland Standard Time (NST) observes daylight saving, alternating with NDT; Australian Western Standard Time (AWST) is a fixed offset with no daylight saving.
Why might the real-world NST–AWST difference change during the year?
The labels NST and AWST are fixed offsets, so this converter is always exact. But Newfoundland Standard Time's region switches between standard and summer time, so for part of the year you may actually want NDT to AWST. Always check which label a region is currently using before you schedule.
