FAQ
What time is it in Prague right now?

Prague uses UTC+1 in winter (standard time) and shifts to UTC+2 in summer when daylight saving time is active. The "compare to your time zone" section above converts any Prague time into your own local time instantly.

What are the best hours to call Prague?
The "best time to call" line above detects your own time zone and shows the window when normal waking hours (roughly 8am–9pm) overlap in both places, so neither side is woken up. It updates live, so it already accounts for daylight saving on both ends.
