Recent works unraveled an intriguing finite-time dynamical phase transition in the thermal relaxation of the mean field Curie-Weiss model. The phase transition reflects a sudden switch in the dynamics. Its existence in systems with a finite range of interaction, however, remained unclear. Employing the Bethe-Guggenheim approximation, which is exact on Bethe lattices, we here demonstrate the finite-time dynamical phase transition in nearest-neighbor Ising systems for arbitrary quenches, including those within the two-phase region. Strikingly, for any given initial condition we prove and explain the existence of non-trivial speed limits for the dynamical phase transition and the relaxation of magnetization, which are absent in the mean field setting. Pair correlations, which are neglected in mean field theory and trivial in the Curie-Weiss model, account for kinetic constraints due to frustrated local configurations that give rise to a global speed limit.
