Time in Edinburgh, United Kingdom

Time zone: BST (UTC/GMT +01:00) — Europe/London

If you need the offset: Edinburgh is on BST, 1 hour ahead of UTC, i.e. UTC+01:00. The matching IANA zone is Europe/London.

One date to watch: Sunday, 25 October 2026. That is when Edinburgh goes back 1 hour onto GMT — recurring meetings set before then will land an hour out unless the calendar handles zones properly.

Current gap between Edinburgh and cities people most often need to coordinate with. These figures already account for daylight saving where it applies.

No shared working window exists with Los Angeles, Tokyo or Sydney, so those calls have to sit outside somebody's normal hours.

Same zone, same time — each of these sits on Europe/London alongside Edinburgh, including through any clock change.
