Time difference between Mexico City and Auckland
Auckland is 19 hours ahead of Mexico City
Mexico City, Mexico is UTC−6 · Auckland, New Zealand is UTC+12 — 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 Mexico City does not change its clocks and Auckland goes forward on the last Sunday in September and back on the first Sunday in April.
| Mexico City / Auckland clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| standard / summer | 19 hours ahead | about 27 weeks |
| standard / standard | 18 hours ahead | about 25 weeks |
Mexico City stays put all year while Auckland moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Auckland's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Mexico City's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.
When they can both be at their desks
Nine-to-five in Mexico City and nine-to-five in Auckland do not overlap at all. With 19 hours between them, one side is always outside working hours, and the practical question is which side takes the early start or the late finish rather than when to meet.
