Nepal time converter and overlap calculator
Convert your time to Nepal time and back. Pick your time zone and working hours to see when a working day in Kathmandu starts and ends on your clock, how much of your day overlaps with it, and how your daylight saving changes it through the year.

On this date you are 5 hours 45 minutes behind Kathmandu. Your zone keeps the same offset all year, and so does Nepal, so these figures hold in every season.
How the calculation works
Nepal Standard Time is UTC+05:45 in every month of the year. Nepal does not observe daylight saving, so when the gap to your city changes, the change is on your side.
Kathmandu's working day starts as 10:00–18:00, the same assumption the country guides use. Teams keep different hours, so set it to the day the team you're talking to actually works.
Your offsets come from the time zone database in your browser. British Columbia stopped changing its clocks in 2026; if your browser's data predates that, the calculator corrects Vancouver itself.
