America/Anchorage · UTC−9
Alaska keeps Alaska Standard Time (AKST, UTC−9) through the winter and moves to Alaska Daylight Time (AKDT, UTC−8) from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November. The clock above already has the correct one applied, so there is nothing to work out by hand. Almost the whole of a state larger than Texas, California and Montana combined runs on one clock; only the far-western Aleutians sit an hour further back.

Common questions
- What time is it in Alaska right now?
- The clock at the top of this page shows the current time in Alaska, updated every second, with today's date and the day of the week beneath it. It reads your device's clock and converts it using the America/Anchorage rules, so it stays correct across daylight-saving changes.
- What is the UTC offset in Alaska?
- AKST is UTC−9 and AKDT is UTC−8. Alaska is on AKDT from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, and on AKST for the rest of the year.
- Does Alaska observe daylight saving time?
- Yes. Clocks go forward an hour for Alaska Daylight Time, which runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, and back again at the end of it.
- What is the IANA timezone for Alaska?
- America/Anchorage. That is the identifier to use in code (a database column, a cron schedule, an Intl.DateTimeFormat call), because it carries the full history of offset and daylight-saving changes for Alaska rather than one fixed number.
