FAQ
What time is it in Singapore right now?
Singapore is on UTC+8 all year round, which is 8 hours ahead of UTC. So when it is 12:00 UTC, the local time in Singapore is 20:00. The live clock at the top of this page applies that offset to the current moment and refreshes every second.
What time zone is Singapore in?
Singapore uses the Asia/Singapore time zone, shown as GMT+8. Singapore stays on UTC+8 all year and does not change its clocks for daylight saving time. The "compare to your time zone" section above converts any Singapore time into your own local time instantly.
Does Singapore observe daylight saving time?
No — Singapore does not observe daylight saving time. Its clocks stay on UTC+8 every day of the year, so its offset from UTC never moves. The difference between Singapore 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 Singapore as the fixed end of the pair and check the other city's dates instead.
How do I convert Singapore time to my time zone?
Convert Singapore time by taking its UTC+8 offset and applying the difference to your own: subtract Singapore's offset from UTC to get the UTC time, then add your own offset. For example, 09:00 in Singapore is 01:00 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 Singapore?
The dialing code for Singapore is +65. To call from abroad, dial +65 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 Singapore?
Standard business hours in Singapore — 9:00 to 17:00 local time — correspond to 01:00 to 09:00 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.
