Cambodia Time Zone: a Clock at the Centre of Indochina
Middle of the band. Cambodia keeps UTC+7 in every month under the regional name Indochina Time (ICT), and nothing seasonal has ever been recorded for it. To convert, add seven hours to UTC. Coming the other way, the gap equals seven minus your own offset, and where that offset is negative the two figures add: UTC+2 sits five hours behind, UTC-5 twelve.

Daylight Saving Time and a Clock That Has Never Shifted
No entries to read. Asia/Phnom_Penh contains no seasonal rule and none is pending, so the offset a converter shows today is the one it will show in December. Any gap that appears to move is being moved from the other end.
Safe to set once. A recurring meeting agreed with anyone inside the region can therefore be fixed once and left alone. Only counterparts in Europe, the Americas or Australasia add a moving part, and the movement is theirs.
How the Khmer New Year Fixes a Local Time to the Minute
Announced to the minute. The traditional year turns in mid-April, and the moment it turns is not left vague. Astrologers calculate the precise minute at which the incoming guardian spirit arrives, and that time is published in advance and observed nationwide, so the new year here is fixed to a minute rather than to midnight.
Which year it is. The Buddhist Era count appears alongside the Gregorian one on documents and signage, and the traditional lunisolar calendar rolls it over at that April moment rather than on the first of January.
Time Differences at the Edges of the Indochina Block
Where the clock finally changes. Cambodia sits in the middle of a four-country band on UTC+7, so the nearest offset change is not at its own frontier but beyond it. Travel west past Thailand as far as Myanmar and the clock goes back half an hour; head east or south past Vietnam towards the Philippines, or down to Malaysia, and it goes forward a full hour.
Steps that never drift. None of the three neighbours adjusts for the seasons, nor do Myanmar or Malaysia at the far edges, so each step reads the same in January as in July.
Local Time in Phnom Penh Against Major World Hubs
Work back from midday. Phnom Penh reaches noon at 05:00 UTC. When a Paris clock shows nine in a winter morning, the Cambodian afternoon has already reached three; when New York shows nine, the working day here is over.
Hub | UTC offset | Phnom Penh compared with the hub |
|---|---|---|
UTC-5 / UTC-4 | Ahead by 12 hours, dropping to 11 in their summer | |
UTC+0 / UTC+1 | Ahead by 7 hours, 6 under British summer time | |
UTC+1 / UTC+2 | Ahead by 6 hours, 5 in their summer | |
UTC+3 | Ahead by 4 hours | |
UTC+5:30 | Ahead by 1 hour 30 minutes | |

Business Hours, Daylight and Sunrise at Angkor
A conventional week. Offices run Monday to Friday, commonly eight in the morning to five in the afternoon with an hour for lunch, and many businesses add a half day on Saturday. The weekend falls on Saturday and Sunday, so working days line up with Europe and North America without adjustment.
Dawn over the towers. Daylight moves within a narrow band, from about eleven and a half hours near the December solstice to a little under thirteen in June, which is why sunrise at Angkor Wat stays between roughly half past five and six all year. The park opens well before first light, and at the equinoxes the sun comes up directly behind the central tower.
Traveller Questions on Cambodian Local Time
Is Cambodia in a different time zone from Thailand?
No. Both hold UTC+7 with no seasonal change, so a road or river crossing in either direction leaves a watch exactly as it was.
Which countries share Indochina Time?
Laos, Thailand and Vietnam use the same name and offset. Western Indonesia keeps the same figure under a different label.
How far ahead of UTC is Cambodia in the northern summer?
Seven hours, exactly as in winter. The figure has no summer variant at all.
At what hour does Cambodia move to tomorrow's date?
At 17:00 UTC. Western Europe is typically wrapping up its afternoon when the date here has already turned.
What are opening hours for government offices?
Broadly the same as private ones, with a long midday break, and closed at weekends.
Do any provinces keep a different clock?
None. One reading covers every province from Battambang to Ratanakiri, and no district has ever kept its own.
