About BRT

Brasília Time (BRT) is UTC−3. It is used in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and most of populated Brazil.

Brasília Time is UTC−3, covering São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brasília. Brazil abolished daylight saving in 2019, so the offset is now fixed year-round — but a great deal of older software, and a lot of published advice, still assumes the southern-hemisphere shift that used to run from October to February. If a Brazilian meeting time was correct last year and is an hour out now, an out-of-date time zone database is the likely cause.

About ACDT

Australian Central Daylight Time (ACDT) is UTC+10:30. It is used in Adelaide in summer.

Australian Central Daylight Time is UTC+10:30, what South Australia keeps from October to April. Darwin stays on ACST through the summer, so for those months two cities in the same nominal zone are an hour apart — the only reason to be precise about which of the two abbreviations a meeting invitation carries.

Does this gap change with the seasons?

Neither BRT nor ACDT shifts with the seasons, so this 13.5-hour difference holds all year. That is unusual enough to be worth relying on: most cross-continental gaps move twice a year.

This is the reason scheduling systems store an IANA zone such as Region/City rather than an offset or an abbreviation: the zone knows its own rules and the offset does not.

Frequently asked questions

What time is 9:00 AM BRT in ACDT?

9:00 AM BRT is 10:30 PM ACDT.

Is ACDT ahead of BRT?

ACDT is 13 hours 30 minutes ahead of BRT.

Which time zone does this use?

BRT is UTC−3 and ACDT is UTC+10:30. Both abbreviations denote a single fixed offset, so this conversion never shifts with daylight saving — what changes is which abbreviation a place is using at the time.
