Comoros does not change its clocks
Comoros stays on UTC+3:00 all year. Its offset from UTC never moves, so its relationship to places that do change shifts twice a year instead — which is usually why someone checks. Right now it is 3 hours ahead of UTC, and 8 hours ahead of New York.

The day is 12 hours 38 minutes long in Moroni, and gaining 1 minute a day. The sun peaks at 11:51 am, 9 minutes before noon on the clock. A UTC offset is a promise that the sun is overhead at midday on one meridian, and Moroni sits 7 minutes of solar time west of UTC+3:00’s. The rest is the equation of time, which swings about a quarter of an hour either way across the year.
Moroni lies inside the tropics, so the sun passes directly overhead at noon twice a year — around February 18 and October 24 in 2026, when a vertical object casts almost no shadow. Nowhere outside the tropics ever sees that. The longest day is 12 hours 49 minutes and the shortest 11 hours 26 minutes, 82 minutes apart.
Comoros’s offset has not moved once since 1970 — no daylight saving, and no change of zone.
