How many hours apart are WET and AEST?

AEST is 10 hours ahead of WET. In everyday terms, once you know the time on one side you just add 10 hours to get the other — so a call between Lisbon and Sydney is always 10 hours apart.

Right now the time in Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) is Tuesday, June 30, 2026 · 3:53:58 AM. It ticks every second, so you’re always looking at the live AEST clock.

The meeting planner highlights the hours that overlap for everyone.

How does daylight saving affect WET to AEST?

The labels WET and AEST 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 10 hours gap usually holds steady right through the year.

Why can you trust this WET to AEST 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 WET to AEST stays accurate for today and for any past or future date you type in.
