'''Neopian Standard Time''' (''NST'') is the time zone used on [[Neopets]], and interestingly, around the [[Neopia]]n globe. Currently, NST synchronises with [[Wikipedia:GMT-8|GMT-8]]. The term was used to describe the [[Wikipedia:GMT|GMT]] and [[Wikipedia:British Summer Time|BST]] time zones while the [[Neopets]] was stationed in [[Wikipedia:Great Britain|Great Britain]].

The fact that countries and places as far as the other side of Neopia to [[Neopian Central]] also use NST has never been explored or justified in the game. As it is the same time zone as [[The Neopets Team]]'s workday, it is likely that this is just for simplicity. NST is also used on [[Kreludor]] and the [[Virtupets Space Station]].
 
The time in NST can be found at any point in the Neopets [[Site theme|upper bar]], formerly in the sidebar.
 
==Special times==
The time of day affects many different aspects of [[Neopets]]. The prizes of some games as well as puzzles and secrets as part of [[Plots]] are time dependent.
 
===Plots===
*[[Neopet Version 2]] - One stage of the plot required the user to view a page within the space station at an exact time and then click a link.
 
===Games===
*[[Coltzan's Shrine]] - Approach the Shrine at the fifth second past the hour to gain an increase in Movement; at the tenth second past the hour to gain an increase in Defence; at the thirtieth minute past the hour to gain an increase in Strength; at an odd hour exactly to gain an increase in Endurance; at an even hour to gain an increase in Level. Approach between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM to receive Burnt Food. Approach at 55 seconds past the minute to receive a [[Dubloon]].
*[[Snowager]] - Visit from 6:00 to 7:00 AM, 2:00 to 3:00 PM or 10:00 to 11:00 PM for a chance to steal from the sleeping Snowager's treasure horde. At any other time of day the Snowager is awake.
*[[Wheel of Excitement]] - If spun exactly on the hour, the user has a much greater chance at winning 10,000 [[NP]] than when spun at other times.
*[[Money Tree]] - There are certain days of the week and times of the day where fruits, [[faeries]], and many other things are given out.
