Does this account for daylight saving time?

Yes — it uses your browser's built-in time zone database, which correctly accounts for each location's current daylight saving status and specific transition dates.

Why do different countries observe daylight saving time differently?

Daylight saving rules (whether a region observes it, and on what dates it starts and ends) are set independently by country or region, which is exactly why manual time zone math is so error-prone and a proper time zone database matters.

Can I convert to a time zone that isn't a major city?

This tool is built around common major world cities for quick reference; for a less common location, choosing the nearest major city in the same time zone typically gives an accurate result.

How current is the underlying time zone data?

It relies on your browser's built-in time zone database, which is regularly updated by browser vendors to reflect the latest daylight saving and time zone rule changes worldwide.
