Japan operates on Japan Standard Time (JST), which is UTC+9 and does not observe daylight saving time. Saudi Arabia, including Riyadh, uses Arabia Standard Time (AST), which is UTC+3 and also does not change seasonally. This means Japan is 6 hours ahead of Riyadh throughout the year; for example, when it is 18:00 in Tokyo, it is 12:00 on the same day in Riyadh.
