Time zone in Chengdu

Chengdu keeps CST (8 hours ahead of UTC, UTC+08:00). Its database zone is Asia/Shanghai — worth knowing if you are scheduling anything that has to survive a daylight saving change.

Chengdu does not change its clocks. The same UTC+08:00 offset holds in January and July, which makes it a stable anchor for recurring calls.

Bear in mind China spans 2 zones across the 452 cities we cover — checking a second city in the same country is often necessary.
