I figured it out. I should be using pytz localize function and not passing tzinfo to datetime. WRONG: local_dt = datetime (dt.year,dt.month,dt.day,dt.hour,dt.minute,dt.second,tzinfo=local_timezone) RIGHT:local_dt = local_timezone.localize(datetime (dt.year,dt.month,dt.day,dt.hour,dt.minute,dt.second))
