Time difference between New York and Manila

Manila is 12 hours ahead of New York

New York, the United States is UTC−5 · Manila, the Philippines 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 New York goes forward on the second Sunday in March and back on the first Sunday in November and Manila does not change its clocks.

Manila stays put all year while New York moves, so a meeting fixed in Manila's calendar shifts by an hour twice a year at New York's end.

When they can both be at their desks

Nine-to-five in New York and nine-to-five in Manila do not overlap at all. With 12 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.
