Daylight saving time in Makassar

Makassar does not observe daylight saving time. Its offset stays at UTC+08:00 every day of the year, which makes it one of the simpler zones to work with: a fixed offset is enough to convert any timestamp, and there are no missing or repeated local hours.

Converting timestamps for this zone in code

Always pass the IANA identifier Asia/Makassar rather than a numeric offset. The identifier carries the zone's entire history of offset and daylight saving changes, so a timestamp from any year converts correctly; a hard-coded offset is only right until the next rule change.

# Python
from datetime import datetime
from zoneinfo import ZoneInfo
datetime.fromtimestamp(1710050400, ZoneInfo("Asia/Makassar"))

// JavaScript
new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-GB', { timeZone: 'Asia/Makassar',
  dateStyle: 'full', timeStyle: 'long' }).format(new Date(1710050400 * 1000));

<?php // PHP
(new DateTimeImmutable("@1710050400"))->setTimezone(new DateTimeZone("Asia/Makassar"));

Frequently asked questions

What is the current time in Makassar?

The clock above shows the current time in the Asia/Makassar time zone, updating every second from your own device clock. Makassar is currently UTC+08:00 (GMT+8).

What is the UTC offset for Asia/Makassar?

Makassar stays on UTC+08:00 all year — this zone does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset never changes.

Does Makassar observe daylight saving time?

No. Makassar does not observe daylight saving time, so its offset from UTC is the same on every day of the year. That makes timestamp conversion for this zone simpler than for zones that shift twice a year.

How do I convert a Unix timestamp to Makassar time?

Paste the timestamp into the converter on this page — the output zone is already set to Asia/Makassar. In code, pass the IANA identifier Asia/Makassar to your language's time zone function rather than hard-coding an offset, so daylight saving is handled for you.
