FAQ
What time is it in Casablanca right now?
Casablanca is on UTC+1 all year round, which is 1 hour ahead of UTC. So when it is 12:00 UTC, the local time in Casablanca is 13:00. The live clock at the top of this page applies that offset to the current moment and refreshes every second.
What time zone is Casablanca in?
Casablanca uses the Africa/Casablanca time zone, shown as GMT+1. Casablanca stays on UTC+1 all year and does not change its clocks for daylight saving time. Morocco stays on UTC+1 year-round but reverts to UTC+0 during Ramadan. The "compare to your time zone" section above converts any Casablanca time into your own local time instantly.
Does Casablanca observe daylight saving time?
No — Casablanca does not observe daylight saving time. Its clocks stay on UTC+1 every day of the year, so its offset from UTC never moves. Morocco stays on UTC+1 year-round but reverts to UTC+0 during Ramadan. The difference between Casablanca and another city therefore changes only when that other city starts or ends its own daylight saving period. If you are scheduling across the seasons, treat Casablanca as the fixed end of the pair and check the other city's dates instead.
How do I convert Casablanca time to my time zone?
Convert Casablanca time by taking its UTC+1 offset and applying the difference to your own: subtract Casablanca's offset from UTC to get the UTC time, then add your own offset. For example, 09:00 in Casablanca is 08:00 UTC. The converter above does this automatically after detecting your device's time zone, and the World Clock meeting planner lays several cities out on one colour-coded 24-hour grid.
What is the dialing code for Casablanca?
The dialing code for Casablanca is +212. To call from abroad, dial +212 before the local number. The card at the top of this page shows it alongside the live local time so you can check it is a reasonable hour before you call.
What are the best hours to call Casablanca?
Standard business hours in Casablanca — 9:00 to 17:00 local time — correspond to 08:00 to 16:00 UTC. Convert that UTC window into your own zone to find the overlap. The "best time to call" line above does this for you, using waking hours of roughly 8am–9pm on both ends so neither side is called at night.
