Daylight Saving Time  

 

a)

 

Europe 

In accordance with EU Directive 2000/84/EC: 

- the standard time is changed to the daylight saving time on the last Sunday in March (by adding one hour), 

- the daylight saving time is changed to the standard time on the last Sunday in October (by taking away one hour). 

 

Considering the above, in the countries following EU Directive 2000/84/EC, when the option of taking into account the daylight saving 

time is activated in the clock: 

 

a) 

On the last Sunday in March 

there is no time interval between 01:00UTC + TimeZone and 01:59UTC + TimeZone. If you try to set the 

clock to the time within this interval, one hour earlier value is adopted, and it is assumed that the time has not yet been changed to the 

daylight saving time.  As a result, within the nearest 60 minutes, the clock will take into account the change to the daylight saving time 

and will add one hour automatically. 

 

b) 

On the last Sunday in October, 

the time interval between 01:00UTC + TimeZone and 01:59UTC + TimeZone appears twice. If you set 

the clock to the time  within  this interval, the  clock  will be set to the time indicated by  the user, and it is assumed that the time has 

already been changed to the standard time. 

 

b)

 

Australia 

 

- the standard time is changed to the daylight saving time on the first Sunday in October at 2:00 AM of the local time (adding one hour), 

- the daylight saving time is changed to the standard time on the first Sunday in April at 3:00 AM of the local time, taking into account 

DST, (taking away one hour). 

 

The daylight saving time is not applied in North Australia, Queensland and West Australia. Setting time change, the user must consider 

the fact if the particular Australian territory (time zone) uses DST. 

 

c)

 

United States and Canada 

 

-  the  standard  time  is  changed  to  the  daylight  saving  time  on  the  second  Sunday  in  March  at  2:00  AM  of  the  local  time  (adding  one 

hour), 

- the daylight saving time is changed to the standard time  on the first  Sunday in November at 3:00 AM of the local time, taking into 

account DST, (taking away one hour). 

 

The states of Arizona, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands and Samoa do not change time. Setting time change, the user must consider 

the fact if the particular state, situated in the respective time zone, uses DST. 

 

a)

 

Israel 

 

- the standard time is changed to the daylight saving time on Friday before the last Sunday in March at 2:00 AM of the local time to 3:00 

AM (adding one hour), 

- the daylight saving time is changed to the standard time on the last Sunday in October at 2:00 AM of the local time to 1:00 AM (taking 

away one hour).
