USA Time Zone Map

USA Time Zone Map represents the different time zones of the  United States  of America.  USA  is divided into six standard time zones. A seventh time zone of the US covers the US Virgin Island and Puerto Rico region. Most of the US States observe daylight saving time for maintaining uniformity of time in certain areas. All these aspects can be learned through a detailed study of United States Time Zone Map.

There are two federal time agencies operating in the US, the Department of Commerce Agency, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and its military counterpart the United States Naval Observatory, which is a defense organization. These agencies provide accurate time of every region of the US.

The USA time zone  map  given on this page defines the time zone boundaries in the US, which are under the authority of Department of Transportation along with the Daylight Saving Time observances.
