Live clocks for every Ethiopia city — UTC offsets, DST status, and inter-city time gaps.
Ethiopia's Timezone System Explained
Ethiopia uses East Africa Time (EAT, UTC+3) year-round with no daylight saving time. Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, Mekelle, Gondar, and all Ethiopian cities operate on a fixed UTC+3 offset — shared with Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Somalia, and Eritrea.
Ethiopia also uses a traditional 12-hour clock system starting at 6 AM (which is '1 o'clock' locally) — the Ethiopian clock is 6 hours offset from the international convention. International scheduling with Ethiopia should clarify which system is being used.
Key differences from Addis Ababa (EAT): London is 3 hours behind in winter. Moscow (UTC+3) shares the same offset. Dubai is 1 hour ahead. New York (EST) is 8 hours behind.
