Live clocks for every Egypt city — UTC offsets, DST status, and inter-city time gaps.
Africa spans multiple timezones from UTC+0 (Ghana, Senegal, coastal West Africa) through UTC+2 (South Africa, Egypt, most of central and southern Africa) to UTC+3 (East Africa — Kenya, Ethiopia, Tanzania). None of the major economies observe DST — Morocco and Egypt have flipped in and out over the years. Nigeria, South Africa, Kenya, and Egypt anchor the regional business days across three fixed offsets.
Egypt uses Eastern European Time (EET, UTC+2) year-round. Egypt abolished daylight saving time in 2011 and has observed a fixed UTC+2 offset since then. Cairo, Alexandria, Giza, Luxor, and Aswan all use EET.
The UTC+2 offset was adopted permanently after years of inconsistent DST practice. During the years Egypt observed summer time (EEST, UTC+3), it aligned with Eastern Europe — now it stays on the winter baseline year-round.
Key time differences from Cairo (EET): London (GMT) is 2 hours behind in winter, 1 hour behind during BST. New York (EST) is 7 hours behind. Dubai (GST) is 2 hours ahead. Nairobi (EAT) is 1 hour ahead. Johannesburg (SAST) is on the same time as Cairo.
