Does the gap change during the year?

Yes, because of daylight saving. Until 3 Apr 2027: NZST is 13 h ahead of UTC. From 3 Apr 2027 to 25 Sep 2027: NZST is 12 h ahead of UTC. From 25 Sep 2027 to 1 Apr 2028: NZST is 13 h ahead of UTC.

UTC does not change its clocks. NZST next changes its clocks on 4 Apr 2027 (back 1 h, to UTC+12), then on 26 Sep 2027 (forward 1 h, to UTC+13).
