You will need a service such as Geonames timesezone and then adjust the NSDate to that timezone offset. The method dateWithCalendarFormat:timeZone: can be used with the date returned from [NSDate date].

NSDate Class Reference

Edit:

That webservice provides timezone offsets. dstOffset would be best in most situations since it accounts for daylight savings time otherwise use gmtOffset. NSTimeZone object can be created by using the static method + (id)timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:(NSInteger)seconds and converting the offset from hours to seconds.

[NSDate date] will return a NSDate object with the current date and time.
