About Chicago time
Chicago follows US Central Time and observes daylight saving time, usually matching Houston.
IANA time zone identifier：America/Chicago
Time-zone rules: IANA Time Zone Database. The live clocks use the current instant; the converter uses the entered date and your browser’s time-zone data, with the Vancouver 2026 rule applied separately. The time table shows selected hours using Chicago’s local date when this page loads. Refresh after local midnight. Examples use the stated 2026 dates. Clock changes can create missing or repeated local times; for a meeting near a transition, confirm the UTC time in the invitation. Government rules and browser data can change.
