# tzdb timezone descriptions # # This file is in the public domain. # # From Paul Eggert (2025-05-15): # This file contains a table where each row stands for a timezone where # civil timestamps have agreed since 1970. Columns are separated by # a single tab. Lines beginning with ‘#’ are comments. All text uses # UTF-8 encoding. The columns of the table are as follows: # # 1. The countries that overlap the timezone, as a comma-separated list # of ISO 3166 2-character country codes. # 2. Latitude and longitude of the timezone’s principal location # in ISO 6709 sign-degrees-minutes-seconds format, # either ±DDMM±DDDMM or ±DDMMSS±DDDMMSS, # first latitude (+ is north), then longitude (+ is east). # 3. Timezone name used in value of TZ environment variable. # Please see the theory.html file for how these names are chosen. # If multiple timezones overlap a country, each has a row in the # table, with each column 1 containing the country code. # 4. Comments; present if and only if countries have multiple timezones, # and useful only for those countries. For example, the comments # for the row with countries CH,DE,LI and name Europe/Zurich # are useful only for DE, since CH and LI have no other timezones. # # If a timezone covers multiple countries, the most-populous city is used, # and that country is listed first in column 1; any other countries # are listed alphabetically by country code. The table is sorted # first by country code, then (if possible) by an order within the # country that (1) makes some geographical sense, and (2) puts the # most populous timezones first, where that does not contradict (1). # # This table is intended as an aid for users, to help them select timezones # appropriate for their practical needs. It is not intended to take or # endorse any position on legal or territorial claims. # #country- #codes coordinates TZ comments AD +4230+00131 Europe/Andorra AE,OM,RE,SC,TF +2518+05518 Asia/Dubai Crozet AF +3431+06912 Asia/Kabul AL +4120+01950 Europe/Tirane AM +4011+04430 Asia/Yerevan AQ -6617+11031 Antarctica/Casey Casey AQ -6835+07758 Antarctica/Davis Davis AQ -6736+06253 Antarctica/Mawson Mawson AQ -6448-06406 Antarctica/Palmer Palmer AQ -6734-06808 Antarctica/Rothera Rothera AQ -720041+0023206 Antarctica/Troll Troll AQ -7824+10654 Antarctica/Vostok Vostok AR -3436-05827 America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires Buenos Aires (BA, CF) AR -3124-06411 America/Argentina/Cordoba most areas: CB, CC, CN, ER, FM, MN, SE, SF AR -2447-06525 America/Argentina/Salta Salta (SA, LP, NQ, RN) AR -2411-06518 America/Argentina/Jujuy Jujuy (JY) AR -2649-06513 America/Argentina/Tucuman Tucumán (TM) AR -2828-06547 America/Argentina/Catamarca Catamarca (CT), Chubut (CH) AR -2926-06651 America/Argentina/La_Rioja La Rioja (LR) AR -3132-06831 America/Argentina/San_Juan San Juan (SJ) AR -3253-06849 America/Argentina/Mendoza Mendoza (MZ) AR -3319-06621 America/Argentina/San_Luis San Luis (SL) AR -5138-06913 America/Argentina/Rio_Gallegos Santa Cruz (SC) AR -5448-06818 America/Argentina/Ushuaia Tierra del Fuego (TF) AS,UM -1416-17042 Pacific/Pago_Pago Midway AT +4813+01620 Europe/Vienna AU -3133+15905 Australia/Lord_Howe Lord Howe Island AU -5430+15857 Antarctica/Macquarie Macquarie Island AU -4253+14719 Australia/Hobart Tasmania AU -3749+14458 Australia/Melbourne Victoria AU -3352+15113 Australia/Sydney New South Wales (most areas) AU -3157+14127 Australia/Broken_Hill New South Wales (Yancowinna) AU -2728+15302 Australia/Brisbane Queensland (most areas) AU -2016+14900 Australia/Lindeman Queensland (Whitsunday Islands) AU -3455+13835 Australia/Adelaide South Australia AU -1228+13050 Australia/Darwin Northern Territory AU -3157+11551 Australia/Perth Western Australia (most areas) AU -3143+12852 Australia/Eucla Western Australia (Eucla) AZ +4023+04951 Asia/Baku BB +1306-05937 America/Barbados BD +2343+09025 Asia/Dhaka BE,LU,NL +5050+00420 Europe/Brussels BG +4241+02319 Europe/Sofia BM +3217-06446 Atlantic/Bermuda BO -1630-06809 America/La_Paz BR -0351-03225 America/Noronha Atlantic islands BR -0127-04829 America/Belem Pará (east), Amapá BR -0343-03830 America/Fortaleza Brazil (northeast: MA, PI, CE, RN, PB) BR -0803-03454 America/Recife Pernambuco BR -0712-04812 America/Araguaina Tocantins BR -0940-03543 America/Maceio Alagoas, Sergipe BR -1259-03831 America/Bahia Bahia BR -2332-04637 America/Sao_Paulo Brazil (southeast: GO, DF, MG, ES, RJ, SP, PR, SC, RS) BR -2027-05437 America/Campo_Grande Mato Grosso do Sul BR -1535-05605 America/Cuiaba Mato Grosso BR -0226-05452 America/Santarem Pará (west) BR -0846-06354 America/Porto_Velho Rondônia BR +0249-06040 America/Boa_Vista Roraima BR -0308-06001 America/Manaus Amazonas (east) BR -0640-06952 America/Eirunepe Amazonas (west) BR -0958-06748 America/Rio_Branco Acre BT +2728+08939 Asia/Thimphu BY +5354+02734 Europe/Minsk BZ +1730-08812 America/Belize CA +4734-05243 America/St_Johns Newfoundland, Labrador (SE) CA +4439-06336 America/Halifax Atlantic -
