Time zone in Canberra
If you need the offset: Canberra is on AEST, 10 hours ahead of UTC, i.e. UTC+10:00. The matching IANA zone is Australia/Sydney.
Expect a clock change on Sunday, 04 October 2026: Canberra switches to AEDT, moving forward by 1 hour. Until that date the UTC+10:00 offset above holds.
Australia is not on a single clock: the 50 cities listed here fall across 7 time zones, so times elsewhere in the country will not match Canberra.
