MST is 6 hours behind GMT right now. Live clocks on both sides, a direct time input, the full 24-hour table with a permalink per hour, and the real daylight-saving state — computed from the IANA tz database on every request, never from a stored offset.

Daylight saving right now

Mountain Standard Time

America/Denver is currently on MDT (UTC-06:00), its daylight-saving clock. That is not MST — this page is named for the abbreviation people search for, and tells you the truth about which one is actually in force.

next change: Sun, 1 Nov 2026 01:00 local → MST (80 days, clocks go back)

MST is UTC-7. Denver switches to MDT (UTC-6) for summer; Phoenix does not — Arizona stays on MST all year, so half the year Phoenix and Denver disagree.

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.

Best time to call green = 09:00–18:00 on both sides

3 overlapping working hours. The longest run is 15:00–18:00 GMT, which is 09:00–12:00 MST.

Every hour as its own page

GMT to MST — questions

What time is it in MST when it is GMT now?
MST is currently 18:26 on Wednesday, 12 August 2026 (MDT, UTC-06:00), while GMT is 00:26 (UTC+00:00). That is 6 hours behind the source clock right now.
How many hours behind is MST of GMT?
6 hours at this moment. The gap is not constant across the year: Greenwich Mean Time and Mountain Standard Time change clocks on different dates (or one of them not at all), so a difference you hard-code in summer can be an hour wrong in winter. The table on this page is computed from the current tzdata rules, not from a fixed offset.
Is MST on daylight saving time right now?
Mountain Standard Time is currently observing daylight saving — the live abbreviation is MDT (UTC-06:00), not MST.
When does MST next change its clocks?
America/Denver next changes on Sunday, 01 November 2026 at 01:00 local time, when it moves back 60 minutes and the abbreviation becomes MST (UTC-07:00). That is 80 days away. This date comes from the IANA tzdata rules currently in force, so it updates if a government changes the law.
What is the best time to schedule a call between GMT and MST?
There are 3 hours of overlap where both sides are inside a 09:00-18:00 working day. The longest block is 15:00–18:00 GMT, which is 09:00–12:00 MST. Use the calendar buttons above to drop it straight into Google Calendar, Outlook or an .ics file.
Which IANA timezone name should I use for MST in code?
Use America/Denver. Abbreviations like MST are ambiguous and not resolvable by most libraries — Python's ZoneInfo, Java's ZoneId, Go's time.LoadLocation and JavaScript's Intl all expect the IANA name. Hard-coding UTC-06:00 instead will be wrong the moment the rules change.
