About The Valley time
The Valley keeps one clock.
Life on this small British Overseas Territory in the northeastern Caribbean moves with a laid-back, island-standard rhythm under plenty of year-round daylight. For remote teams in The Valley, Anguilla, the constant AST offset (UTC−4) keeps business hours neatly aligned with much of eastern North America, without any daylight‑saving shifts to spring forward or fall back.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about The Valley's time zone, daylight saving rules, and scheduling across it. Can't find what you need? Email [email protected].
- Is Anguilla in the same time zone as EST?
- Anguilla stays on AST (UTC−4) year-round, which matches US Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) while the US is on daylight saving time in spring and fall, but not when the mainland switches back to standard time in winter.
- Do clocks change throughout the year in Anguilla?
- No. Anguilla does not observe daylight saving, so schedules stay predictable without sudden one‑hour jumps forward in spring or back in autumn.
- What’s the official time zone name?
- The territory uses Atlantic Standard Time (AST), which at UTC−4 is one hour ahead of EST and the same as the summer schedules of many US eastern cities.
- How does this affect calling the US East Coast?
- From roughly March to November (US EDT period), calls from Anguilla stay perfectly in sync with US East Coast business hours. In winter, US offices open an hour earlier relative to Anguilla.
- Is daylight saving ever used in the Caribbean here?
- Some Caribbean islands still observe daylight saving, but Anguilla does not. This steadiness simplifies scheduling for international teams across the region.
- Are sunrises and sunsets the same all year?
- Because of Anguilla’s latitude near 18°N, variation between the longest and shortest days is small: sunrise is usually around 5:30–6:45 local time and sunset around 6:00–7:15.
- What are typical working hours in Anguilla?
- Local offices commonly work 8:00–17:00 AST, with the hottest midday hours sometimes stretching into a late lunch. Remote staff across the hemisphere can plan around this AST window.
