That's a sane & easy sufficient condition. It's a waste of time to worry about minimal necessary conditions. "Convert to UTC' is the obvious way to do darned near everything. Converting to any other fixed-offset zone would do just as well, but that observation is also a waste of time, since "convert to UTC" is just as easy ;-)

So it isn't sufficient for them all to be in, say, Australia/Melbourne, which observes DST. Fair enough. And yeah, converting to UTC is straightforward enough.
