Questions fréquentes
What time is it in Warsaw right now?
The clock at the top of this page shows the current local time in Warsaw, Poland, updated every second from your device's clock and converted with the Europe/Warsaw time zone rules. Warsaw currently runs at UTC+2 (CEST), and switches between UTC+1 and UTC+2 across the year.
What time zone is Warsaw in?
Warsaw uses the IANA time zone Europe/Warsaw, written as CET in standard time and CEST while daylight saving time is in force. Every time on this page is computed from that zone rather than from a stored offset, so it follows the rules currently published in the time zone database.
What is the UTC offset in Warsaw?
Warsaw has two offsets. It runs at UTC+1 during standard time and at UTC+2 during daylight saving time, which is why a single fixed offset for Warsaw is always wrong for part of the year. In 2026 the daylight saving period runs from March 29, 2026 to October 25, 2026.
Does Warsaw observe daylight saving time?
Yes. Warsaw changes its clocks twice in 2026: March 29, 2026 — clocks go forward 1 hour, from 02:00 CET to 03:00 CEST; October 25, 2026 — clocks go back 1 hour, from 03:00 CEST to 02:00 CET. Time differences with other places therefore shift during the year.
What is the time difference between Warsaw and New York?
For most of 2026, New York is 6 hours behind Warsaw. Because the two places change their clocks on different dates, the gap is 5 hours (New York behind Warsaw) from March 8 – March 29 and October 25 – November 1.
What is the time difference between Warsaw and Sao Paulo?
For most of 2026, Sao Paulo is 5 hours behind Warsaw. Because the two places change their clocks on different dates, the gap is 4 hours (Sao Paulo behind Warsaw) from January 1 – March 29 and October 25 – January 1.
What is the time difference between Warsaw and London?
