(Redirected from Afghanistan Time)

Time zones of South Asia (numbers are hours ahead of UTC)

The time in Afghanistan follows a single standard time offset of UTC+04:30 (four and a half hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time),[1] even though the country spans almost two geographical time zones.

The official national standard time is called Afghanistan Time (AFT) internationally.[2][3][4]

Daylight saving time[edit]

Afghanistan has never observed daylight saving time (also known as DSTorsummer time). Afghanistan uses only one time zone across the whole nation and all its territories.
