Time difference and daylight saving

Berlin is usually 6 hours ahead of New York. The United States and Germany change their clocks on different dates, so the gap drops to 5 hours for about three weeks in March and one week from late October to early November. Germany uses Central European Time (CET) in winter and Central European Summer Time (CEST) in summer.

Finding a meeting time

With 8 AM–5 PM schedules, the shared window is 8–11 AM in New York, which is 2–5 PM in Berlin. During the weeks when the gap is 5 hours, it stretches to 8 AM–noon in New York. Morning in New York and afternoon in Berlin is the natural slot for a recurring call; recheck it around the clock changes.

Use Working hours to set each city’s local schedule. Suggestions use 8 AM–5 PM by default, include weekends, and do not check holidays or calendars. Add to calendar exports your chosen moment; it does not send invitations.
