C# DateTime to UTC Time without changing the time

Question

How would I convert a preexisting datetime to UTC time without changing the actual time.

Example:

DateTime dateTime = GetSomeDateTime(); // dateTime          


        

Answer 1

You can use the overloaded constructor of DateTime:

DateTime utcDateTime = new DateTime(dateTime.Year, dateTime.Month, dateTime.Day, dateTime.Hour, dateTime.Minute, dateTime.Second, DateTimeKind.Utc);
