Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier. Pandas Timestamp.tz_convert() function convert tz-aware Timestamp to another time zone. The function takes the desired timezone as an input to which we want to convert to.
Syntax :Timestamp.tz_convert() Parameters : tz : Time zone for time which Timestamp will be converted to. None will remove timezone holding UTC time. Return : converted : Timestamp
Example #1: Use Timestamp.tz_convert() function to convert the given tz-aware Timestamp object to 'Asia/Kolkata'. Python3
# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Create the Timestamp object
ts = pd.Timestamp(year = 2011,  month = 11, day = 21, 
                  hour = 10, second = 49, tz = 'US/Central') 

# Print the Timestamp object
print(ts)
Output : Now we will use the Timestamp.tz_convert() function to convert the timezone of ts object to 'Asia/Kolkata'. Python3
# convert to 'Asia / Kolkata'
ts.tz_convert(tz = 'Asia/Kolkata')
Output : As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.tz_convert() function has converted the timezone of the given object to 'Asia/Kolkata'. Example #2: Use Timestamp.tz_convert() function to convert the given tz-aware Timestamp object to 'US/Pacific'. Python3
# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd

# Create the Timestamp object
ts = pd.Timestamp(year = 2009, month = 5, day = 31, 
                  hour = 4, second = 49, tz = 'Europe/Berlin')

# Print the Timestamp object
print(ts)
Output : Now we will use the Timestamp.tz_convert() function to convert the timezone of ts object to 'US/Pacific'. Python3
# convert to 'US / Pacific'
ts.tz_convert(tz = 'US/Pacific')
Output : As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.tz_convert() function has converted the timezone of the given object to 'US/Pacific'.
