Daylight Saving Time Around the World 2009

See The World Clock for list of current times around the world, and which places are observing DST at the moment (marked by * in The World Clock).

Daylight saving time is also called summer time or daylight savings time. When DST is not observed, it is called standard time, normal time or winter time.

This list displays a brief (but not complete) overview over which countries that plan to observe DST during 2009. Note that the list might not be final - countries and states sometimes make adjustments that are announced just days or weeks ahead of the change.

Detailed information is available for the first half of 2009 and the second half of 2009.
