MST to ICT Time Converter

ICT is 13 hours ahead of MST. The US Mountain states are currently on MDT (UTC-6:00), and ICT is UTC+7:00.

Worth knowing right now. The US Mountain states are currently on MDT, not MST, because daylight saving is in effect. The 13 hours above is the gap between those two regions today, which is almost certainly what you want. Taken strictly as written, MST to ICT is 14 hours.

Best Time to Call Between MST and ICT

Standard 9-to-5 hours in these two zones never overlap, so someone has to take the call outside their working day. The most workable window is 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM MST, which is 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM ICT.

What MST and ICT Actually Are

MST — Mountain Standard Time

Denver, Salt Lake City, Calgary — and Phoenix year-round. Standing at UTC-7:00 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 MST. Arizona stays on MST all year, so Phoenix and Denver are an hour apart for eight months and identical for four.

Arizona has stayed on MST year-round since 1968 — the Navajo Nation within it does observe daylight saving, making the state a patchwork.

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.

What This Means in Practice

The date changes mid-working-day

For 6 of the eight hours in a normal MST working day, the equivalent ICT 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

MST 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 13 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.
