Time in Halifax, Canada

Time zone: ADT (UTC/GMT -03:00) — America/Halifax

If you need the offset: Halifax is on ADT, 3 hours behind UTC, i.e. UTC-03:00. The matching IANA zone is America/Halifax.

One date to watch: Sunday, 01 November 2026. That is when Halifax goes back 1 hour onto AST — recurring meetings set before then will land an hour out unless the calendar handles zones properly.

Bear in mind Canada spans 8 zones across the 53 cities we cover — checking a second city in the same country is often necessary.

Current gap between Halifax and cities people most often need to coordinate with. These figures already account for daylight saving where it applies.

Overlap of a normal working day, shown in Halifax time — outside these windows one side is off the clock.

No shared working window exists with Mumbai, Shanghai, Tokyo or Sydney, so those calls have to sit outside somebody's normal hours.

These Canada cities also use America/Halifax, so their clocks read identically to Halifax at every moment of the year.
