Regional context

Timezones across Africa

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.
