Kathmandu operates on Nepal Time, which is UTC+5:45. Many countries in Western and Central Europe, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Switzerland, use time zones that shift with daylight saving time. In winter, the United Kingdom is usually on UTC+0, while much of continental Europe such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Switzerland is on UTC+1. During this period, Kathmandu is 5 hours 45 minutes ahead of the United Kingdom, and 4 hours 45 minutes ahead of these continental European countries.
In summer, typically from late March to late October, the United Kingdom moves to UTC+1 and many continental European countries move to UTC+2. During this time, Kathmandu is 4 hours 45 minutes ahead of the United Kingdom and 3 hours 45 minutes ahead of countries such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Switzerland.
Turkey usually observes UTC+3 year-round. This means Kathmandu is 2 hours 45 minutes ahead of Istanbul throughout the year. Always check local time and any changes to daylight saving rules close to your travel dates.
