What time is it in Finland?

Finland is currently on standard time, UTC+2:00. The next change is Sunday, March 28, 2027, when clocks go forward one hour — 3:00 am becomes 4:00 am local time.

Helsinki is 7 hours ahead of New York and 10 hours ahead of Los Angeles. 9am in New York is 4:00 pm in Helsinki.

To convert a specific time rather than read the current one, the converter shows both directions with the next clock change for each.

The day is 7 hours 40 minutes long in Helsinki, and losing 5 minutes a day. The sun peaks within a few minutes of twelve o’clock, so Finland’s offset fits its longitude about as closely as a whole-hour offset can.

At this latitude the year is extreme: Helsinki gets 18 hours 56 minutes of daylight at the June solstice and 5 hours 49 minutes at the December one — 13 hours 7 minutes between them. Clock time matters less here than almost anywhere, because for months at a stretch it is either light or dark whatever the clock says.
