Why people convert New York to Dhaka time
- Scheduling a call from New York to Dhaka: a 10:00 AM start in New York lands at 8:00 PM in Dhaka, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Handling a +10h gap: New York and Dhaka have no overlap inside a normal 9-to-5 day, so real-time meetings need an early-morning or late-evening slot on one side. 9:00 AM in Dhaka is 7:00 PM in New York.
- Coordinating a New York-based team with Dhaka contacts: quoting times in the other side's local clock — not your own — removes the single biggest source of missed meetings.
- Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM EDT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +10h gap is not.
- With a +10h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week New York takes the early slot, the next week Dhaka does.
- New York: Clocks fall back on Sun, Nov 1, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the +10h gap.
About EST (Eastern Standard Time)
Eastern Standard Time (EST) is observed during the winter months in the eastern part of North America. It covers 23 US states and parts of Canada including Ontario and Quebec. EST is the most populous time zone in the United States, home to major financial centers like New York City and global organizations headquartered in Washington D.C.

The time zone also covers parts of the Caribbean and Central America including Panama, Jamaica, and the Cayman Islands.
About BDST (Bangladesh Standard Time)
Bangladesh Standard Time (BDST) is the single time zone used across Bangladesh, fixed at UTC+06:00 all year. Bangladesh has not observed daylight saving time since a short-lived experiment in 2009, so the gap between Bangladesh and every other zone is constant. Dhaka, the capital, is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. Because the country sits close to the middle of the UTC+06:00 band, solar noon is near 12:00 for most of the year. BDST is listed separately from British Summer Time, which shares the BST abbreviation but is UTC+01:00.
