FAQ
What time is it in Khartoum right now?
Khartoum is on UTC+2 all year round, which is 2 hours ahead of UTC. So when it is 12:00 UTC, the local time in Khartoum is 14:00. The live clock at the top of this page applies that offset to the current moment and refreshes every second.
What time zone is Khartoum in?
Khartoum uses the Africa/Khartoum time zone, shown as GMT+2. Khartoum stays on UTC+2 all year and does not change its clocks for daylight saving time. The "compare to your time zone" section above converts any Khartoum time into your own local time instantly.
Does Khartoum observe daylight saving time?
No — Khartoum does not observe daylight saving time. Its clocks stay on UTC+2 every day of the year, so its offset from UTC never moves. The difference between Khartoum 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 Khartoum as the fixed end of the pair and check the other city's dates instead.
How do I convert Khartoum time to my time zone?
Convert Khartoum time by taking its UTC+2 offset and applying the difference to your own: subtract Khartoum's offset from UTC to get the UTC time, then add your own offset. For example, 09:00 in Khartoum is 07:00 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 Khartoum?
The dialing code for Khartoum is +249. To call from abroad, dial +249 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 Khartoum?
Standard business hours in Khartoum — 9:00 to 17:00 local time — correspond to 07:00 to 15:00 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.
