What is EET in GST?

Gulf Standard Time is 1 hour ahead

Eastern European Time is on UTC+3:00 and Gulf Standard Time is on UTC+4:00 right now. Eastern European Time is on daylight saving, so its clocks read EEST. The gap changes during the year — see below.

Time in Athens: 3:52:44 PM
Time in Dubai: 4:52:44 PM
Difference: +1 h
Next clock change: October 25, 2026

When the difference changes

Eastern European Time and Gulf Standard Time do not change their clocks on the same dates, so the gap between them is not the same all year. Most converters show only today’s figure. These are the periods ahead:

Now – October 25, 2026Gulf Standard Time is 1 hour ahead
October 25, 2026 – March 28, 2027Gulf Standard Time is 2 hours ahead
March 28, 2027 – onwardsGulf Standard Time is 1 hour ahead

Periods shorter than a day are not listed. Each zone changes at its own local time, so on a date when both move there are a few hours when the gap is briefly something else.

Daylight saving

Eastern European Time

Sunday, October 25, 2026

Clocks go back one hour — 4:00 am becomes 3:00 am local time, and the zone is on EET after that.

Gulf Standard Time

No clock changes

Gulf Standard Time stays on GST all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Scheduling between the two

Working hours overlap from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm EEST, which is 10:00 am to 6:00 pm GST. Anything inside that window falls in the normal working day at both ends.
