What is MSK in WET?

Western European Time is 2 hours behind

Moscow Time is on UTC+3:00 and Western European Time is on UTC+1:00 right now. Western European Time is on daylight saving, so its clocks read WEST. The gap changes during the year — see below.

Time in Moscow: 3:53:05 PM
Time in Lisbon: 1:53:05 PM

Next clock change: October 25, 2026

When the difference changes

Moscow Time and Western European 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, 2026Western European Time is 2 hours behind
October 25, 2026 – March 28, 2027Western European Time is 3 hours behind
March 28, 2027 – onwardsWestern European Time is 2 hours behind

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.

Clocks go back one hour — 2:00 am becomes 1:00 am local time, and the zone is on WET after that.

Moscow Time (MSK) is used in western Russia. Russia abolished daylight saving in 2011.

Western European Time (WEST) is used in Portugal, Ireland and the Canary Islands
