About Anyang-si Time Zone
Anyang-si uses the Asia/Seoul IANA time zone, the standard time zone for all of South Korea. Its standard offset is UTC+9, also called Korea Standard Time (KST), which means local time in Anyang-si is 9 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time throughout the year.
South Korea does not currently observe daylight saving time, so Anyang-si stays on UTC+9 year-round with no seasonal clock changes in spring or autumn. That makes scheduling more predictable than in countries such as the United States or United Kingdom, where offsets shift during DST periods; for example, the time gap between Anyang-si and New York is 14 hours when New York is on EST and 13 hours when New York is on EDT.
Anyang-si is located in Gyeonggi Province, just south of Seoul in the Seoul Capital Area, so it shares the same time as nearby cities including Seoul, Suwon, Incheon, and Seongnam. It is also in the same UTC+9 band as Tokyo, Japan, but it is 1 hour behind Sydney during Australian Eastern Standard Time (UTC+10) and 5 hours ahead of Dubai (UTC+4), which matters for aviation schedules, regional trade, and multinational operations across Asia-Pacific and the Middle East.
