Philippine Standard Time

Philippine Standard Time (PST; Filipino: Pamantayang Oras ng Pilipinas) is the time zone used in the Philippines. It is 8 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+8). The time zone is the same all year round because the Philippines does not observe Daylight Saving Time.
