Phuket
What time is it in Thailand
About Phuket
Phuket sits at UTC+7 year-round — Thailand skipped daylight saving long ago. Right now the island is 11 hours ahead of New York, but that gap widens to 12 hours after the US falls back in November. Noon Eastern is 11 PM in Phuket, too late for business. Realistic overlap is tight: 8 AM EST lands at 8 PM Phuket time, just inside dinner hour. Earlier than that on the Asian side means catching folks before lunch.
