About time in GMT

GMT is in the British Time zone (GMT/BST). The standard offset from UTC is UTC+00:00, shifting to UTC+01:00 during daylight saving time.

BST: last Sunday March → last Sunday October. Clocks "spring forward" in spring and "fall back" in autumn, changing local time by 1 hour.

Frequently asked questions

What time zone is GMT in?

GMT is in the GMT time zone (IANA identifier: Europe/London). The current local time is shown in the clock above and updates every second. As part of International, the local UTC offset shifts twice a year if the region observes daylight saving time.

Does GMT observe daylight saving time?

Whether GMT observes DST depends on the local rule for Europe/London. The clock above automatically applies the current DST status, so the displayed time always reflects the actual local time — no manual adjustment needed. Major exceptions worldwide include most of Asia, Iceland, Russia, and parts of Australia, which stay on standard time year-round.

How do I convert GMT time to my local time?

Use our time-zone converter (linked below) — pick GMT as the source and your own city as the destination. The converter handles DST in both zones and shows side-by-side clocks plus the current offset between them.

Why might my computer show a different GMT time?

Computer clocks rely on the operating system's timezone database (typically the IANA tzdata). If your OS has not been updated recently, it may use stale DST rules — common after countries change DST policies (Mexico 2022, parts of Australia 2008). Our clock pulls fresh tzdata and adjusts in real time.
