PST to MYT Conversion Guide

What is PST to MYT Conversion?

PST to MYT conversion helps you translate time between Pacific Standard Time and Malaysia Time. PST switches between UTC-8 (winter) and PDT UTC-7 (summer) due to daylight saving time, while MYT is always UTC+8 throughout the year. This creates a large time difference across the Pacific.

Time Zone Information

Pacific Standard Time (PST): Used in western US and Canada during winter months. Always UTC-8 from November to March.

Pacific Daylight Time (PDT): Used in western US and Canada during summer months. Always UTC-7 from March to November.

Malaysia Time (MYT): Used throughout Malaysia year-round. Always UTC+8 with no daylight saving adjustments.

Daylight Saving Time Impact

PST Period: Observed from first Sunday in November to second Sunday in March - 16 hours behind MYT

PDT Period: Observed from second Sunday in March to first Sunday in November - 15 hours behind MYT

MYT Consistency: Malaysia never changes its time and remains at UTC+8 throughout the year

Why this tool is worth bookmarking

This calculator instantly converts any date and time between Pacific Time (used in parts of North America) and Malaysia Time. It’s not just a basic math tool. It factors in daylight saving rules automatically, gives you the UTC offset if you want it, and even lets you flip timezones to see the reverse direction.

How it works, start to finish

Pick a date and time

You start on the Pacific Time side by default. Just choose your date from the calendar and punch in a time. If you’d rather start with Malaysia Time, use the dropdown to change the input zone.

Click "Convert Time" (or let it convert on its own)

If “Auto Convert” is turned on, the result will update automatically as soon as you change anything. If not, just hit the big Convert Time button when you're ready.

See the results instantly

You’ll see the converted time in large numbers along with the date and full breakdown below. That includes the time difference, whether DST is active, and both timezones’ current UTC offsets. Helpful if you need to include time info in an email or meeting invite.

Tips that make it even easier

Swap zones: Use the “Swap” button to reverse the input and output sides. This flips which timezone you’re entering and which one you’re getting.
Get the current time: Hit “Now” and it will auto-fill the input with your selected timezone’s current time and date.
Switch formats: Toggle between 12-hour and 24-hour views using the “Time Format” button.
Customize what you see: Use the checkboxes to:
- Turn DST awareness on or off
- Show or hide UTC offsets
- Include or exclude seconds

What happens when daylight saving kicks in?

The Pacific coast of North America switches from PST (UTC-8) to PDT (UTC-7) in spring and back again in fall. This calculator checks the date you pick and adjusts for that automatically. Malaysia doesn’t use daylight saving time, so it stays on UTC+8 all year long.

Where this comes in handy

Say you're in Vancouver and you're coordinating with a manufacturing partner in Johor. You need to figure out whether a 3:00 PM call on Monday in Canada will work for their Tuesday schedule. This tool tells you instantly that 3:00 PM PDT on Monday becomes 6:00 AM MYT on Tuesday. No guesswork, no missed meetings.

The smartest way to track Pacific and Malaysia time

Whether you're syncing with coworkers in Penang or planning a game night between Los Angeles and Kuala Lumpur, this converter keeps the hours straight. It's quick to use, reliable year-round, and cuts out the mental math. Keep it open whenever your plans cross the Pacific.
