Romania switches to Daylight Saving Time

25 Martie 2018, 00:10

Romania switches to Daylight Saving Time (summer time). Starting this Midnight, 3:00 AM will be 4:00 AM, and tomorrow, 26 March, will be the shortest day of 2018.

From 26 March until October 28, when Romania returns to winter (standard) time, the difference between Romania's official time and Universal Time (GMT) will be three hours.

Recently, the European Parliament has called the European Commission to assess the advantages and disadvantages of switching to winter and summer time, taking into consideration to put an end to the DST.

European Commission has yet to decide if it will act on European Parliament’s call.

Since 1997, all EU countries switch to summer time on the last Sunday of March.
