New York City observes Daylight Saving Time and Bangkok does not, so the gap between them shifts by an hour twice a year. The next shift is on Sunday, November 1, 2026, when New York City adjusts its clocks and the difference becomes 12 hours. Anything scheduled across that date needs checking again.
