North American time zones:

AKDT - Alaska Daylight Time

Time zone offset: UTC - 8 hours

AKDT is 8 hours behind of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)

Note that AKDT is a daylight saving time/summer time zone. It is generally only used during the summer in the places listed below, during the winter AKST is used instead

Time zone abbreviations: AKDT, HAY

HAY – Heure Avancée du Yukon (French)

Email time zone indicator: -0800

An email sent from someone in the AKDT time zone will have the time zone listed as "-0800" in the headers of the email. (However, "-0800" does not have to be in AKDT, as other time zones could have the same UTC offset).

For actual dates DST might be observed, look at the examples below
