About PKT

Pakistan Standard Time (PKT) is UTC+5. It is used in Pakistan, all year.

Pakistan Standard Time is UTC+5 and does not change through the year — daylight saving has been tried twice and abandoned twice. It sits half an hour behind India, which is the only pair of neighbouring countries in the region separated by a half-hour step rather than a whole one, and a common source of missed calls across that border.

About EAT

East Africa Time (EAT) is UTC+3. It is used in Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda and Somalia.

East Africa Time is UTC+3 and fixed. Nairobi, Addis Ababa and Dar es Salaam all keep it. Ethiopia additionally uses a clock that counts from dawn rather than midnight for everyday purposes, six hours off the international one, so a time given locally in Addis may need converting twice rather than once.

Does this gap change with the seasons?

Neither PKT nor EAT shifts with the seasons, so this 2-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.
