Comparing Time Zones: Romania and Anchorage
Romania runs on Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) at UTC+03:00, currently observing daylight saving time. Anchorage runs on Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT) at UTC-08:00, also currently on daylight saving time. That puts Romania 11 hours behind Anchorage — a difference of -11h at the current offsets.
In practice, when it is 9:00 AM in Romania it is 10:00 PM in Anchorage on the previous day. Midnight in Romania is 1:00 PM in Anchorage. Because both zones shift for daylight saving, the gap between them only changes during the few weeks each year when their transition dates differ.

Why people convert Romania to Anchorage time
- Scheduling a call from Romania to Anchorage: a 10:00 AM start in Romania lands at 11:00 PM in Anchorage the previous day, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Handling a -11h gap: Romania and Anchorage 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 Anchorage is 10:00 PM in Romania.
- Booking travel or deliveries: tracking Anchorage local time against Romania keeps pickup windows and arrival estimates honest across the -11h offset.
- Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM EEST" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a -11h gap is not.
- With a -11h gap there is no shared 9-to-5 window, so alternate the early start: one week Romania takes the early slot, the next week Anchorage does.
- Romania: Clocks fall back on Sun, Oct 25, 2026. Re-check this page after that date because the offset changes and so does the -11h gap.
- Anchorage: Clocks fall back on Sun, Nov 1, 2026. Any meeting series spanning that date will shift by an hour in local time.
About EET (Eastern European Time)
Eastern European Time (EET) covers a wide geographical area including Eastern Europe (Finland, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine), the Middle East (Israel, Lebanon, Jordan), and northeastern Africa (Egypt, Libya). During summer, most EET countries switch to Eastern European Summer Time (EEST, UTC+03:00). Turkey permanently moved to UTC+03:00 in 2016, effectively leaving EET.
About AKST (Alaska Standard Time)
Alaska Standard Time (AKST) is used in nearly all of Alaska. Due to Alaska's vast geographic size, the Aleutian Islands use Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time instead. During summer months, Alaska switches to Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT, UTC-08:00).
