Time difference between Tokyo and Melbourne

Melbourne is 1 hour ahead of Tokyo

Tokyo, Japan is UTC+9 · Melbourne, Australia is UTC+10 — 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 Tokyo does not change its clocks and Melbourne goes forward on the first Sunday in October and back on the first Sunday in April.

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