Frequently Asked Questions

What does the EST to CET converter do?
It converts Eastern Time (ET) to Central European Time (CET) so you can schedule across US and Europe without guessing the offset.
Why does it sometimes show EDT instead of EST?
Eastern Time switches between standard (EST) and daylight (EDT). The correct result depends on the date you're converting.
Does CET also change with daylight saving?
Yes. CET can shift to CEST during daylight saving periods. If you're converting for a specific date, a date-aware converter avoids 1-hour errors.
How can I avoid meeting time confusion?
Convert with the correct date and then share both times, like "10:00 AM ET / 4:00 PM CET." This is especially helpful around DST changes.
Is this EST to CET converter secure?
Yes. It runs 100% client-side, so your time inputs stay in your browser.
