자주 묻는 질문
What time is it in Santiago right now?
The clock at the top of this page shows the current local time in Santiago, Chile, updated every second from your device's clock and converted with the America/Santiago time zone rules. Santiago currently runs at UTC-4 (CLT), and switches between UTC-4 and UTC-3 across the year.
What time zone is Santiago in?
Santiago uses the IANA time zone America/Santiago, written as CLT in standard time and CLST 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.
What is the UTC offset in Santiago?
Santiago has two offsets. It runs at UTC-4 during standard time and at UTC-3 during daylight saving time, which is why a single fixed offset for Santiago is always wrong for part of the year. In 2026 the daylight saving period runs from September 6, 2026 to April 4, 2026.
Does Santiago observe daylight saving time?
Yes. Santiago changes its clocks twice in 2026: April 4, 2026 — clocks go back 1 hour, from 00:00 CLST to 23:00 CLT; September 6, 2026 — clocks go forward 1 hour, from 00:00 CLT to 01:00 CLST. Time differences with other places therefore shift during the year.
What is the time difference between Santiago and New York?
