The Pacific Time Zone ( PT) is a time zone encompassing parts of western Canada, the western United States, and western Mexico. Places in this zone observe standard time by subtracting eight hours from Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC−08:00 ). During daylight saving time, a time offset of UTC−07:00 is used.

The United States (excluding territories) has six time zones ( Hawaii–Aleutian, Alaska, Pacific, Mountain, Central and Eastern ), with further variation in the observance of daylight saving time.
