Daylight saving time in Zagreb

This zone shifts its clocks twice a year, so its offset from UTC depends on the date. In 2026 the transitions fall at:

TransitionLocal time in ZagrebOffset after
Clocks go forward Sunday, 29 March 2026 at 03:00:00 CEST UTC+02:00
Clocks go back Sunday, 25 October 2026 at 02:00:00 CET UTC+01:00

Around the forward transition an hour of local time does not exist, and around the backward transition an hour occurs twice. Any job scheduled at a wall-clock time inside those windows will be skipped or run twice — the reason recurring work should be scheduled in UTC. See daylight saving bugs.

Converting timestamps for this zone in code

Always pass the IANA identifier Europe/Zagreb 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("Europe/Zagreb"))

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

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

Frequently asked questions

What is the current time in Zagreb?

The clock above shows the current time in the Europe/Zagreb time zone, updating every second from your own device clock. Zagreb is currently UTC+02:00 (GMT+2).

What is the UTC offset for Europe/Zagreb?

Zagreb uses UTC+01:00 during standard time and UTC+02:00 during daylight saving time. Right now it is UTC+02:00.

Does Zagreb observe daylight saving time?

Yes. In 2026, daylight saving begins on Sunday, 29 March 2026 at 03:00:00 CEST and ends on Sunday, 25 October 2026 at 02:00:00 CET. Because of this, converting a timestamp for this zone requires knowing the date, not just the zone.

How do I convert a Unix timestamp to Zagreb time?

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