What time zone is Tijuana in?
Tijuana uses the IANA time zone America/Tijuana, written as PST in standard time and PDT while daylight saving time is in force. Every time on this page is computed from that zone rather than from a stored offset, so it follows the rules currently published in the time zone database.
