When the difference changes

West Africa Time and Eastern 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:

  1. Now – March 28, 2027Eastern European Time is 1 hour ahead
  2. March 28, 2027 – October 31, 2027Eastern European Time is 2 hours ahead
  3. October 31, 2027 – onwardsEastern European 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

West Africa Time

No clock changes

West Africa Time stays on WAT all year, so its offset from UTC never moves.

Eastern European Time

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