MMT — Myanmar Time
MMT is Myanmar Time, 6 hours 30 minutes ahead of UTC. It is a fixed offset: unlike a time zone, it does not change with the season — the zones that use it switch to a different abbreviation instead.

City clocks reflect whatever their zone is doing; where a city observes daylight saving time, its difference from MMT changes twice a year. Use the time zone converter for a specific date.

Why MMT is not an identifier
MMT is shorthand, not a standard. There is no registry of time zone abbreviations, no authority that assigns them, and nothing preventing two regions from adopting the same three letters — which is what makes codes like IST and CST unusable without context.
For anything a machine will read — a calendar invitation, a database column, an API response — use the IANA identifier of the zone (Asia/Yangon, for example) or an explicit UTC offset alongside the date. The identifier survives a change in the law; MMT and its 6 hours 30 minutes offset do not.
Frequently asked questions
What does MMT stand for?
MMT stands for Myanmar Time. It is 6 hours 30 minutes ahead of UTC, written UTC+6:30.
What is MMT in UTC?
MMT is UTC+6:30. To convert an MMT time to UTC, subtract 6 hours 30 minutes.
Which time zone should I use instead of MMT?
Use an IANA identifier — Asia/Yangon for Myanmar Time — or state the UTC offset with the date. Abbreviations are not identifiers: they are not unique, they are not registered anywhere, and half of them change with the season. Calendar software resolves this automatically when you pick a city rather than typing letters.
