Tips for Calling Mexico from the US
Mexico spans four time zones, but most major cities (including Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey) are on Central Time — 1 hour behind US Eastern. This makes calling extremely convenient from the US. Border cities like Tijuana are on Pacific Time. Mexico abolished daylight saving time in 2022 (except border regions), which may create seasonal time differences with the US.
