Time zone in Columbus
The local standard in Columbus is EDT — UTC-04:00, or 4 hours behind UTC. Systems that store time zones by name use America/New_York for this part of the world.
One date to watch: Sunday, 01 November 2026. That is when Columbus goes back 1 hour onto EST — recurring meetings set before then will land an hour out unless the calendar handles zones properly.
Bear in mind United States spans 10 zones across the 419 cities we cover — checking a second city in the same country is often necessary.
