Time zone in Tijuana
The local standard in Tijuana is PDT — UTC-07:00, or 7 hours behind UTC. Systems that store time zones by name use America/Tijuana for this part of the world.
One date to watch: Sunday, 01 November 2026. That is when Tijuana goes back 1 hour onto PST — recurring meetings set before then will land an hour out unless the calendar handles zones properly.
Tijuana is one of 101 Mexico cities here, spread over 10 time zones; do not assume the rest of the country reads the same clock.
Population: about 1,922,523 — 1st largest of the 100 Mexico cities indexed here.
