What ICT and PT Actually Are
ICT — Indochina Time
Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Vientiane. Standing at UTC+7:00 as written, and the region does not change its clocks, so that offset holds all year.
Indochina Time is shared across four countries, which makes South-East Asian scheduling unusually simple compared with Europe or the Americas.
PT — Pacific Time
Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, Vancouver. Standing at UTC-8:00 as written, and the region does change its clocks, so its live offset moves by an hour twice a year. The next change is on Sunday, November 1, 2026, to PST.
Pacific Time anchors the US technology industry, so a great deal of software and scheduling convention is written implicitly around it.
What This Means in Practice
The date changes mid-working-day
For 5 of the eight hours in a normal ICT working day, the equivalent PT time falls on a different calendar date. Anything scheduled in that stretch needs the date checked as well as the time, or a Tuesday call quietly becomes a Wednesday one at the other end.
This gap is not fixed
PT changes its clocks and ICT does not, so the difference between them moves by an hour twice a year. A recurring meeting set now will drift for one side from Sunday, November 1, 2026 unless someone resets it.
Nearly opposite sides of the clock
At 14 hours apart, one side's morning is the other side's night. Handing work over at the end of a shift usually beats trying to get both parties in the same call.
