Local planning guide
Understanding Karachi time
Use the Karachi clock for a call, arrival or appointment in the city. The local clock stays on Pakistan Standard Time, while the difference from a colleague in London changes with the UK season.

Karachi’s clock and overnight appointments
Karachi uses Asia/Karachi at UTC+5 under current rules, with no seasonal clock change. The clock above shows both the local time and local date.
When a booking says 00:30, confirm the calendar date carefully: this is shortly after midnight at the start of that date. Avoid describing it only as “Friday night”, which can mean different dates to different people. For travel, use the dates and local times printed by the operator.
Finding a Karachi–London meeting window
Karachi is five hours ahead of London during GMT and four hours ahead during British Summer Time. A 14:00 Karachi call is at 09:00 in London in winter or 10:00 during BST.
For people aiming for 09:00–18:00 in both cities, explore 14:00–17:00 in Karachi as a starting window under either UK offset. Leave enough room for the full meeting and confirm each person’s working days. The green highlights are a planning aid, not a booking.

Keep the intended city time fixed
If an appointment must always start at 14:00 in Karachi, create the repeating event with Asia/Karachi as its time zone. A London participant’s local hour can change when UK clocks change, even though the Karachi appointment stays fixed.
Karachi is already selected in the converter and the first planner row. Choose London in another row, enter the date using the device time zone shown below the input, and check the Karachi result. If your device is not set to Pakistan time, do not assume typing 14:00 means 14:00 in Karachi.

Questions about Karachi time
Is Karachi ahead of Dubai?
Yes. Under current rules Karachi is one hour ahead: 10:00 in Dubai is 11:00 in Karachi on the same day.
Why is the London difference sometimes four hours and sometimes five?
London changes between UTC+0 and UTC+1. Karachi remains at UTC+5, so the difference changes when the UK clock changes.
