Time difference between Buenos Aires and Los Angeles

Los Angeles is 4 hours behind Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires, Argentina is UTC−3 · Los Angeles, the United States is UTC−8 — on standard time

The gap is not the same all year

Every converter gives one number for this pair. That number is right for most of the year and wrong for part of it, because Buenos Aires does not change its clocks and Los Angeles goes forward on the second Sunday in March and back on the first Sunday in November.

Buenos Aires stays put all year while Los Angeles moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Los Angeles's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Buenos Aires's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.
