Europe/Warsaw · UTC+1
Poland keeps Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) through the winter and moves to Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2) from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. The clock above already has the correct one applied, so there is nothing to work out by hand. Poland is on Central European Time, which puts it an hour behind neighbouring Ukraine and Lithuania despite the shared border.

Common questions
- What time is it in Poland right now?
- The clock at the top of this page shows the current time in Poland, updated every second, with today's date and the day of the week beneath it. It reads your device's clock and converts it using the Europe/Warsaw rules, so it stays correct across daylight-saving changes.
- What is the UTC offset in Poland?
- CET is UTC+1 and CEST is UTC+2. Poland is on CEST from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October, and on CET for the rest of the year.
- Does Poland observe daylight saving time?
- Yes. Clocks go forward an hour for Central European Summer Time, which runs from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October, and back again at the end of it.
- What is the IANA timezone for Poland?
- Europe/Warsaw. That is the identifier to use in code (a database column, a cron schedule, an Intl.DateTimeFormat call), because it carries the full history of offset and daylight-saving changes for Poland rather than one fixed number.
