When the difference changes
The two zones move their clocks on different dates, so the gap takes more than one value. These are the stretches of 2026:
| Dates | WIB is | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1 January – 5 April | 4 hours behind | — |
| 5 April – 4 October | 3 hours behind | Australian Eastern Time clocks go back one hour |
| 4 October – 1 January | 4 hours behind | Australian Eastern Time clocks go forward one hour |
Dates are Australian Eastern Time local dates for 2026. Transition dates move by a few days from year to year; the rule each country follows does not.
About Australian Eastern Time
Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra run at UTC+10 as AEST and UTC+11 as AEDT, changing on the first Sunday in October and the first Sunday in April. Queensland does not change at all, so Brisbane matches Sydney for about half the year and sits an hour behind it for the rest — on the same "Eastern" label.
Cities on this clock: Sydney, Melbourne.
About Western Indonesia Time
Indonesia spans three zones; WIB is the western one, at a fixed UTC+7, and it covers Jakarta, Sumatra and most of the population. Central Indonesia is an hour ahead and the east two, so "Indonesia time" is only unambiguous once you know which.
Cities on this clock: Jakarta, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Phnom Penh.
How the difference is worked out
The gap between Australian Eastern Time and Western Indonesia Time is not one number. The two zones change their clocks on different dates, so for part of the year the difference is 4 hours and for the rest it is something else — the table above lists each stretch of 2026 with the date it starts and which country's clocks moved.
With both zones on their own standard time — daylight saving not in force anywhere — Western Indonesia Time is 3 hours behind Australian Eastern Time. That figure never changes; everything else on this page follows from it plus whichever clocks have moved.
Every figure here comes from the IANA time zone database via your browser's own Intl engine, using the zone ids Australia/Sydney and Asia/Jakarta. Nothing is looked up on a server and nothing about your visit is recorded.
