Why people convert ICT to PST time
- Scheduling a call from ICT to PST: a 10:00 AM start in ICT lands at 7:00 PM in PST the previous day, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Handling a -15h gap: ICT and PST 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 PST is 6:00 PM in ICT.
- Coordinating a ICT-based team with PST 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 ICT" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a -15h gap is not.
- With a -15h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week ICT takes the early slot, the next week PST does.
