Frequently asked questions

Answers generated from live data for UTC−04:00. Can't find what you need? Email [email protected].

What time is it at UTC−04:00 right now?
UTC−04:00 is always exactly 4 hours behind Coordinated Universal Time, every day of the year. The clock at the top of this page shows its current time live — in military usage this offset is zone Q (Quebec).
Which countries use UTC−04:00?
31 territories keep UTC−04:00 year-round: Anguilla (America/Anguilla), Antigua and Barbuda (America/Antigua), Aruba (America/Aruba), Barbados (America/Barbados). Others keep it for part of the year only, moving a rung with daylight saving.
Is New York always on UTC−04:00?
No. New York observes daylight saving time, so it spends part of the year one rung away. Check the zone table above for the date of its next move.
What's the difference between UTC−04:00 and EDT?
UTC−04:00 is the numeric offset; EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) is one named time zone that keeps it. Other zones can share the offset while following entirely different rules and history — same clock, different identity.
