Atlantic Standard Time Zone
The
Atlantic Standard Time Zone (AST)
is a geographic region that keeps time by subtracting four hours from Coordinated Universal Time (
UTC
), resulting in
UTC-4
.
In
Canada
, the
Provinces
of
New Brunswick
,
Prince Edward Island
,
Nova Scotia
, and small portions of
Quebec
are part of the Atlantic Standard Time Zone. Officially, the entirety of
Labrador
is also in the Atlantic Standard Time Zone; however, the southeastern tip of that region unofficially uses
Newfoundland Standard Time
, the time used on the island of
Newfoundland
.
Other parts of the world that keep time by subtracting four hours from UTC include
Bermuda
,
Puerto Rico
, the
US Virgin Islands
, and many other
Caribbean
islands; as well as
Venezuela
, parts of
Brazil
, and
Bolivia
.
AST is known as
Atlantic Daylight Time (ADT)
during
Daylight Saving Time
, and has one hour added to make it three hours behind UTC (
UTC-3
).
