Two answers, and the difference matters. Read literally, CST is a fixed -06:00 offset, which puts 06:00 GMT at 00:00. But America/Chicago is on CDT on this date, so the clock on the wall there reads 01:00. If a human wrote "06:00 GMT", they almost certainly meant the wall clock.

CST is US Central Time in winter; Chicago and Dallas move to CDT (UTC-5) in summer. CST is also China Standard Time (UTC+8) and Cuba Standard Time (UTC-5) — check which one your data means.

Greenwich Mean Time

Etc/GMT is on GMT (UTC+00:00).

no clock change scheduled — fixed at UTC+00:00

GMT is UTC+0 and never shifts. The UK observes GMT in winter only — in summer it is on BST (UTC+1), so "GMT" on a British invite dated in July usually means BST.

GMT to CST — questions

What is 06:00 GMT in CST?
06:00 GMT is 01:00 (1:00 AM) in Central Standard Time, computed for 13 August 2026 using the CDT rules in force that day.
Does the answer change during the year?
Yes, whenever either side changes its clocks. On this date the destination is on CDT (UTC-05:00); at other times of year the same 06:00 GMT lands on a different local hour. That is why this page recomputes from tzdata on every request instead of storing a fixed answer.
