Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Google Ads use WA time?
Your account timezone is fixed at setup (WA in this case). Campaign schedules must be adjusted manually for other regions.
Does Google Ads auto-adjust for DST?
No. If your account is set to WA, it does not follow DST. Use this tool to calculate shifts.
Is QLD affected by daylight saving?
Queensland does not observe daylight saving. The time difference with WA remains constant at -2 hours.
