Daylight saving time in Morocco

As of 2018, daylight saving time (DST) is permanently observed in Morocco. Previously, time was advanced to UTC+01:00 at 02:00 on the last Sunday of March, and reverted to UTC±00:00 (standard time), defined as Greenwich Mean Time locally, at 03:00 on the last Sunday of October. This practice was continued until October 2018, after which clocks were permanently advanced. An exception was made during the month of Ramadan during which clocks reverted to UTC+00:00 (standard time).

For 2014, these dates were:

29 March – advance to UTC+01:00 (DST)
28 June – return to UTC+00:00 (start of Ramadan)
2 August – advance to UTC+01:00 (end of Ramadan)
26 October – return to UTC+00:00 (standard time)
