About this tool
Kathmandu to Colombo Time Converter
Convert time between Kathmandu and Colombo with live clocks and the current, daylight-saving-aware time difference.
See what time it is in Colombo when you know the time in Kathmandu — this converter shows both cities' clocks live and the exact current time difference between them, adjusted automatically for daylight saving. Kathmandu runs on the Asia/Kathmandu zone (NPT) and Colombo on Asia/Colombo (IST); the tool reads your browser's own time-zone data, so the offset is always right even across the days each city changes its clocks. Type any Kathmandu time to pin the matching Colombo time, or press swap to convert the other way. Nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
What is the time difference between Kathmandu and Colombo?
It can change through the year because one or both cities observe daylight saving, so the converter above shows the current difference live rather than a fixed number. Kathmandu uses Asia/Kathmandu and Colombo uses Asia/Colombo.
What time is it in Colombo when it's 9:00 AM in Kathmandu?
Type 9:00 into the Kathmandu field above and the converter shows the matching Colombo time for today, daylight saving included. It also shows the Colombo date in case the time crosses midnight.
Does this converter handle daylight saving between Kathmandu and Colombo?
Yes. It uses your browser's own time-zone data (Asia/Kathmandu for Kathmandu, Asia/Colombo for Colombo), which carries each region's daylight-saving rules, so the result stays correct all year.
Can it convert Colombo time to Kathmandu time as well?
Yes — press the swap button and the converter flips to show Colombo → Kathmandu, with the same live clocks and time picker.
Is the Kathmandu to Colombo time conversion accurate and private?
It relies on the standard IANA time-zone database built into your browser, not an approximation, and makes no network calls, so your times stay on your device.
