Were it not for Daylight Savings Time, New Zealand would be 17 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time. But New Zealand is on Daylight Savings Time when the U.S. is not, and the U.S. is on Daylight Savings Time when New Zealand is not (except for the few weeks when both are on Daylight Savings or Standard Time).

So, during the middle of the year (approximately March/April through September/November), New Zealand is 16 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.

During the rest of the year (approximately September/November to March/April) New Zealand is 18 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time.

From September 26 (when New Zealand begins Daylight Savings) to November 7 (when New York ends Daylight Savings), and from March 14 (when Daylight Savings begins in New York) to April 4 (when it ends in New Zealand), New Zealand is 17 hours ahead of New York.

Also, the Chatham Islands are 45 minutes ahead of mainland New Zealand. So, the Chatham Islands are 16 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Daylight Time, and 18 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Standard Time.

So, in December, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New York, it is 4 AM Wednesday in Auckland.

In July, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New York, it's 2 AM Wednesday in Auckland.

From September 26 to November 7, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New York, it's 3 AM Wednesday in Auckland.

Also, from March 14 to April 4, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New York, it's 3 AM Wednesday in Auckland.

This depends entirely upon which part of Australia one is in, and what time of year it is.

Australia has several different time zones during summer. During summer, when some Australian states have daylight saving, the time difference would be:

  • If it is 11:00am in Queensland, it is 2:00pm in New Zealand.
  • If it is 11:00am in New South Wales, Tasmania, ACT or Victoria, it is 1:00pm in New Zealand.
  • If it is 11:00am in South Australia (and Broken hill in far western NSW), it is 1:30pm in New Zealand.
  • If it is 11:00am in the Northern Territory, it is 2:30pm in New Zealand.
  • If it is 11:00am in Western Australia, it is 4:00pm in New Zealand.

When daylight saving ends in late March/early April, New South Wales, Tasmania, ACT and Victoria all fall back into line with Queensland's time, and South Australia's time becomes the same as that of the Northern Territory.

Were it not for Daylight Savings Time, New Zealand would be 17 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time. But since these two cities are in opposite hemispheres (New York in the Northern Hemisphere, and New Zealand in the Southern) they have opposite seasons (when it's winter in New Zealand, it's summer in New York, and vice versa).

Because they have opposite seasons, New Zealand is on Daylight Savings Time when the U.S. is not, and the U.S. is on Daylight Savings Time when New Zealand is not. There are only a few weeks in a year when both are on Daylight Savings or Standard Time (as New York begins Daylight Savings a few weeks before New Zealand ends Daylight Savings, and vice versa).

So, during the middle of the year (approximately March/April through September/November), New Zealand is 16 hours ahead of Eastern Daylight Time.

During the rest of the year (approximately September/November to March/April) New Zealand is 18 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time.

Also, the Chatham Islands are 45 minutes ahead of mainland New Zealand. So, the Chatham Islands are 16 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Daylight Time, and 18 hours and 45 minutes ahead of Eastern Standard Time.

So, in December, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New Zealand, it is 4 PM Monday in New York City.

In July, if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New Zealand, it's 6 PM Monday in New York City.

From late September (when New Zealand begins Daylight Savings) to early November (when New York ends Daylight Savings), if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New Zealand, it's 5 PM Monday in New York City.

Also, from mid-March (when Daylight Savings begins in New York) to early April (when it ends in New Zealand), if it's 10 AM on a Tuesday in New Zealand, it's 5 PM Monday in New York City.

It depends on what part of Australia you are talking about and what time of the year it is.

If it is 9:00am in New Zealand, it is 7:00am in NSW, ACT, Victoria and Tasmania, and 6:30am in South Australia. This works all year except for one week between the last Sunday in September and the first Sunday in October, where New Zealand is observing daylight saving but Australia is not, resuling in it being 6:00am in NSW, ACT, Vic and Tas, and 5:30am in SA.

Queensland, Northern Territory and Western Australia dont observe Daylight Savings, so the time would be 7:00am, 6:30am and 5:00am respectively during normal time, and 6:00am, 5:30am, and 4:00am during New Zealand daylight savings time.
