Daylight saving time (DST) by country
Observes DST around the Northern Hemisphere summer
Observes DST around the Southern Hemisphere summer
Formerly observed DST
Never observed DST
Daylight saving time (DST), also known as summer time, is the practice of advancing clocks during part of the year, typically by one hour around spring and summer, so that daylight ends at a later time of the day. As of 2022, DST is observed in most of Europe, most of North America and parts of Asia around the Northern Hemisphere summer, and in parts of South America and Oceania around the Southern Hemisphere summer. It was also formerly observed in other areas.Contents

In the table above, the DST start and end times refer to the local time before each change occurs, unless otherwise specified. The shift is the amount of time added at the DST start time and subtracted at the DST end time. For example, in Canada and the United States, when DST starts, the local time changes from 2:00 to 3:00, and when DST ends, the local time changes from 2:00 to 1:00. As the time change depends on the time zone, it does not occur simultaneously in all parts of these countries. Conversely, in the parts of Europe that observe DST, the time change occurs simultaneously at 1:00 UTC in almost all locations regardless of their time zone.
Morocco, including the portion of Western Sahara that it administers, also observes an annual time change but not related to seasonal daylight. The local time is decreased by one hour on the Sunday before Ramadan at 3:00, and increased by one hour on the Sunday after Ramadan at 2:00.

When is Daylight Saving Time worldwide?
Dates worldwide. Most countries practicing DST are listed here. Today approximately 70 countries utilize Daylight Saving Time in at least a portion of the country.
Overview of countries
While the adoption of Daylight Saving Time is almost always rife with controversy, most of the world (except for countries around the Equator) has implemented DST at one point or another. This map depicts countries that currently have DST, that previously had DST, and that never had DST.
Worldwide daylight saving
Today, approximately 70 countries utilize Daylight Saving Time in at least a portion of the country. Japan, India, and China are the only major industrialized countries that do not observe some form of daylight saving.
Help keep us current
If there's been a change to the observance of Daylight Saving Time or Summer Time where you live, please let us know. With your help, we can ensure that this exhibit is accurate. If one is available, please include a link to the new law, or to news coverage of the new law. Read more about sharing.
Not the tropics
Equatorial and tropical countries (lower latitudes) generally do not observe Daylight Saving Time. Since the daylight hours are similar during every season, there is no advantage to moving clocks forward during the summer. China has had a single time zone since May 1, 1980, observing summer Daylight Saving Time from 1986 through 1991; they do not observe DST now.
List of countries
Most countries that observe Daylight Saving Time are listed in the table below. They all save one hour in the summer and change their clocks some time between midnight and 3:00 a.m.

Observance can also be erratic. For example, Chile delayed its changeover date for the Pope's visit in 1987, as well as for a presidential inauguration in 1990.
Australia
Clark Dam at Butlers Gorge in Tasmania. The bulk of the electricity in Tasmania is generated by hydroelectric stations, causing an energy shortage in the drought of 1967.
All Countries with DST
A summary of all countries which currently observe Daylight Saving Time with further info on introductions and upcoming changes.
All timezones with DST
The daylight saving times (also called "summertime") were introduced in many countries in the early 20th century, the first considerations have already been published about 30 years earlier. To use the longer daylight in the evenings, a clock change one hour back to summertime is the simpliest solution. Like this, it is possible to save energy and promote outdoor activities.
Nowadays, most changes between winter- and summer time happen at the same time - even across national borders. Especially in the earlier years this was still a wild mess without established rules.
Additionally, not all regions of a country have to change their timezones at the same time - or even at all. These decisions are often based on goverments in federal states.

Dates for the time change
The change from Daylight Saving Time to Winter Time (Standard Time) is done in each country according to individually defined rules. Within the USA, this is always the 2nd Sunday in March and the 1st Sunday in November. The time is always 2:00 a.m. in the respective time zone. E.g. in the European Union this is already different: There it is always changed on the last Sunday in March and October. Summer time in Europe therefore starts 1-2 weeks later and ends 1 week earlier. Also the timing is different. The entire EU changes the clocks at the same time (2:00 a.m. CET in March, and 3:00 a.m. CEST in October). EU countries that are not in CET at all adjust the changeover to it. Portugal (CET -1) thus changes its clocks at 1 a.m. local time.
Within the USA, on the other hand, there are 7 different time zones and thus always 7 different times for the changeover. While in New York one has already changed to the next time, in Chicago, Denver or Los Angeles the changeover is still to come.
The Brazilians formerly set their watches to Winter Time in February (before abolishing DST), while neighboring Paraguay is waiting until the end of March. In nearby Chile it is the first Saturday in April an the first Monday in September.
Winter time is Summer time in the southern hemisphere
Due to the movement of the sun between the northern and southern tropic, the annual times also shift depending on the position on the globe. In the southern hemisphere, the sun is closer in December than in the northern hemisphere. At the time of the European winter months there is summer. As a result, in the southern hemisphere you change to Summer Time while the northern countries switch to Winter Time.
