Calculates the offset or difference between the time in this time zone and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) for a particular date and time.

public:
 TimeSpan GetUtcOffset(DateTime dateTime);

public TimeSpan GetUtcOffset (DateTime dateTime);

member this.GetUtcOffset : DateTime -> TimeSpan

Public Function GetUtcOffset (dateTime As DateTime) As TimeSpan

Parameters

dateTime: DateTime

The date and time to determine the offset for.

Returns

TimeSpan

An object that indicates the time difference between the two time zones.

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the GetUtcOffset(DateTime) method with different time zones and with date values that have different Kind property values.

Remarks

The returned time span includes any differences due to the application of adjustment rules to the current time zone. It differs from the BaseUtcOffset property, which returns the difference between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and the time zone's standard time and, therefore, does not take adjustment rules into account.

If the dateTime parameter's Kind property does not correspond to the time zone object, this method performs the necessary conversion before returning a result. For example, this can occur if the Kind property is DateTimeKind.Local but the time zone object is not the local time zone. If dateTime is ambiguous, or if the converted time is ambiguous, this method interprets the ambiguous time as a standard time. If dateTime is invalid, this method returns a TimeSpan object that reflects the difference between UTC and the time zone's standard time.

The TimeZoneInfo.GetUtcOffset(DateTime) method is similar in operation to the GetUtcOffset method of the TimeZone class.
