Live clocks for every United Arab Emirates city — UTC offsets, DST status, and inter-city time gaps.
The UAE runs on Gulf Standard Time (GST, UTC+4) year-round. No DST. Weekly business rhythm: since 2022 the UAE has run a Monday-Friday working week (moved from Sunday-Thursday), a big change from the surrounding GCC pattern. Dubai and Abu Dhabi both share the same offset. Overlap with India (UTC+5:30 = 1.5 h ahead) is very short but usable for business coordination.
The Middle East mostly sits at UTC+3 (Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Israel, Iraq) or UTC+4 (UAE, Oman). Israel and parts of Palestine observe DST on a different schedule from Europe (typically Mar → Oct, but with local variation). Weekly business rhythm is distinct — Friday is the weekend across the GCC and much of the region, so Sunday-Thursday is the working week in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, and Egypt.
