Python Pandas - Convert naive Timestamp to local time zone

To convert naive Timestamp to local time zone, use the timestamp.tz_locale(). Within that, set the timezone using the tz parameter.

At first, import the required libraries −

import pandas as pd

Creating a naive timestamp

timestamp = pd.Timestamp('2021-09-14T15:12:34.261811624')

Add the timezone

timestamp.tz_localize(tz='Australia/Brisbane')

Example

Following is the code

import pandas as pd

# creating a naive timestamp
timestamp = pd.Timestamp('2021-09-14T15:12:34.261811624')

# display the Timestamp
print("Timestamp...\n", timestamp)

# add a timezone
print("\nTimestamp to local time zone...\n", timestamp.tz_localize(tz='Australia/Brisbane'))

Output

This will produce the following code

Timestamp...
 2021-09-14 15:12:34.261811624

Timestamp to local time zone...
 2021-09-14 15:12:34.261811624+10:00
