Current Time in Miami

Time Zone & Business Hours — Miami

Miami runs on Eastern Time — EST (UTC−5) in winter and EDT (UTC−4) in summer. While sharing its timezone with New York, Miami's economic identity is distinct: it is the primary financial and logistics gateway between the United States and Latin America, home to the largest concentration of international banks in Florida.

Miami's subtropical climate means daylight saving has a different practical feel than in northern Eastern Time cities — sunset stays reliably late into the evening year-round regardless of the clock change, but the EST-to-EDT shift still matters for coordinating with Latin American business partners who do not all observe DST.
