Tips for Calling New Zealand from the US
New Zealand is 17-18 hours ahead of US Eastern Time — almost a full day ahead. The best approach is to call from the US in the early morning (6-8 AM ET = 11 PM-1 AM NZST same day, or during NZ evening). New Zealand observes daylight saving from late September to early April, adding an extra hour of difference. Kiwis are generally informal and friendly on the phone.
