Time difference in Tahiti
What is the time difference between France and Tahiti?
The time difference between Paris and Tahiti is 11 or 12 hours, depending on the time of year. When it's 12:00 p.m in Paris, it's 0:00 a.m or 01:00 a.m in Tahiti. The 1-hour difference is due to seasonal variations. Unlike French Polynesia, metropolitan France adopts summer time. From the fourth Sunday in March to the fourth Sunday in October each year, Paris is one hour ahead of Papeete, in addition to the time difference calculated on the basis of time zones. If you're going to Tahiti for the summer vacations, plan on a 12-hour time difference. The switch to winter time on the fourth Sunday in October will readjust the time difference to solar time (11 a.m.).
