Darwin
What time is it in Australia
About Darwin
Darwin keeps its own time — Australia/Darwin sits at UTC+9:30 year-round, one of the few half-hour offsets you'll meet in practice. Noon in New York translates to 1:30 a.m. the next day in the Northern Territory capital, a 13.5-hour gap that grows to 14.5 hours once New York rolls back to standard time in early November. There's no DST in Darwin, so the math never shifts on their end. Government offices typically run 8:00–16:30 local, which means an evening call from the US East Coast tends to miss them outright.
