@jvail could you provide a small reproducible example?

Sure, thank you. I'll put a notebook together

I hope this helps: https://github.com/jvail/xarray-simlab/blob/test_encoding_netcdf/notebooks/test_encoding_netcdf.ipynb

---- edit If I serialize to a dict after popping the _FillValue and then back it seems to work (both the datetime and NaT encoding) unless the datetime64 variable has at least one none 'Nat'.

xr.Dataset.from_dict(ds.to_dict()).to_netcdf('nc', engine='netcdf4')

Removing the entire encoding obj from the variable with dtype datetime64 seems to work as well. However, no idea, if that is a good idea.
