Your original problem was wrong pattern symbol "h" which stands for the clock hour (range 1-12). In this case, the am-pm-information is missing. Better, use the pattern symbol "H" instead (hour of day in range 0-23). So the pattern should rather have been like:

uuuu-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSX (best pattern also suitable for strict mode)

The following worked for me  import java time    import java time format     public class Times      public static void main String   args        final String dateTime    2012-02-22T02 06 58 147Z       DateTimeFormatter formatter   DateTimeFormatter ISO INSTANT      final ZonedDateTime parsed   ZonedDateTime parse dateTime  formatter withZone ZoneId of  UTC          System out println parsed toLocalDateTime             and gave me output as    2012-02-22T02 06 58 147

The default parser can parse your input  So you don t need a custom formatter and  String dateTime    2012-02-22T02 06 58 147Z   ZonedDateTime d   ZonedDateTime parse dateTime     works as expected

If your input always has a time zone of  zulu    Z    UTC   then you can use DateTimeFormatter ISO INSTANT  implicitly    final Instant parsed   Instant parse dateTime     If time zone varies and has the form of   01 00  or   01 00 00   when not  Z    then you can use DateTimeFormatter ISO OFFSET DATE TIME   DateTimeFormatter formatter   DateTimeFormatter ISO OFFSET DATE TIME  final ZonedDateTime parsed   ZonedDateTime parse dateTime  formatter     If neither is the case  you can construct a DateTimeFormatter in the same manner as DateTimeFormatter ISO OFFSET DATE TIME is constructed     Your current pattern has several problems    not using strict mode  ResolverStyle STRICT   using yyyy instead of uuuu  yyyy will not work in strict mode   using 12-hour hh instead of 24-hour HH  using only one digit S for fractional seconds  but input has three
