Time difference between New York and São Paulo

São Paulo is 1 hour ahead of New York

New York, the United States is UTC−5 · São Paulo, Brazil is UTC−3 — 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 São Paulo does not change its clocks.

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