What Time is it in Italy?

First of all, Italy is a European country. Therefore, in Italy, there is only one time zone at UTC+2.

The time change in Italy is made nationally, from standard time to summer time, by moving the clocks forward one hour in summer.

To better understand this, let's compare the Italian time zone with the time zones of other countries.

• For example, New York is currently at UTC-4 Eastern Time, so the time difference between New York and Italy is 6 hours.
• Another example: London is an hour behind Italy, so if it's midday in the UK, it's 1pm in Italy.
• As a final comparison, let's take the example of China. Between Italy and China there is a 6-hour time difference, since China is 6 hours ahead of Italy.
• Finally, between Italy and Spain, and between Italy and France, there is no time difference.
• The time change is made nationally, from standard time to summer time, by moving the clocks forward one hour in summer.
