CET to EDT Time — Convert Central European Time to Eastern Daylight Time (US)

EDT is currently 6 hours behind CET.

On Clockjumper, CET refers to Central European Time, UTC+1 — the winter time across most of continental Western and Central Europe. From the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October the same countries move to CEST (UTC+2).

EDT is 6 hours behind CET for most of the year. Central European Time and Eastern Daylight Time (US) both observe daylight saving, but they change their clocks on different dates, so for a short period each spring and each autumn the gap differs by an hour — the converter above always reflects the correct offset for the date you pick.
