Timing is… complicated. If you weren’t already confused by all the timezones and UTC or GMT talk, on top of that each timezone transforms each year into a headache or a godsend. In the spring time, we give away one hour of our sleep and wonder where the time went on a special day called Daylight Savings Time or DST. And, in the fall, we get our long-lost hour back and descend back into our gloomy days of winter.
But, did you know that each timezone or country can observe Daylight Savings Time on a different day? Yup, it’s true, it gets even more complicated. In this article, we want to share the different days that countries and timezones observe Daylight Savings Time in 2022. We’ll be particularly looking at the, “Spring Forward” part of the year in this article.
Daylight Savings Time Across the Timezones and Countries
Our booking plugin works with the IANA timezone list and can automatically detect your current timezone and adjust the time slots based on it’s findings. If you need help figuring out what timezone you fall under we have a guide to help you pick a timezone.
This isn’t a comprehensive list of all the countries observing Daylight Savings Time, we tried to get most of them though!
