Daylight Saving Time (DST)

Singapore does not have varying time zones, nor does it employ daylight savings. However it is useful to know when the clocks change (moving from winter standard time to summer time) in other countries of the world.

Note: Singapore currently does not employ time zone changes and daylight saving.

If dealing with other countries, it can be helpful to know how the different varieties of DST (for those countries that use the system) map on to each other. Most countries adjust their clocks at some time between midnight and 03:00.

Note: Many countries and territories change days of transitions to DST from year to year and some do not employ it every year.
