Changes affecting current and future time stamps
Turks & Caicos' switch from US eastern time to UTC-4 year-round
did not occur on 2014-11-02 at 02:00. It's currently scheduled
for 2015-11-01 at 02:00. (Thanks to Chris Walton.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
Many pre-1989 time stamps have been corrected for Asia/Seoul and
Asia/Pyongyang, based on sources for the Korean-language Wikipedia
entry for time in Korea. (Thanks to Sanghyuk Jung.) Also, no
longer guess that Pyongyang mimicked Seoul time after World War II,
as this is politically implausible.
Some more zones have been turned into links, when they differed
from existing zones only for older time stamps. As usual,
these changes affect UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.
Their old contents have been moved to the 'backzone' file.
The affected zones are: Africa/Addis_Ababa, Africa/Asmara,
Africa/Dar_es_Salaam, Africa/Djibouti, Africa/Kampala,
Africa/Mogadishu, Indian/Antananarivo, Indian/Comoro, and
Indian/Mayotte.
Changes affecting commentary
The commentary is less enthusiastic about Shanks as a source,
and is more careful to distinguish UT from UTC.

# Unfortunately this book contains many errors and cites no sources.

|

# Gwillim Law writes that a good source
|

# for recent time zone data is the International Air Transport
|

# Association's Standard Schedules Information Manual (IATA SSIM),
|
||
# published semiannually. Law sent in several helpful summaries
|
||
# of the IATA's data after 1990. Except where otherwise noted,
|
||
# IATA SSIM is the source for entries after 1990.
|

# Earlier editions of these tables used the North American style (e.g. ARST and
|
||
# ARDT for Argentine Standard and Daylight Time), but the following quote
|
||
# suggests that it's better to use European style (e.g. ART and ARST).
|
||
# I suggest the use of _Summer time_ instead of the more cumbersome

|

#
|
||
# Earlier editions of these tables also used the North American style
|
||
# for time zones in Brazil, but this was incorrect, as Brazilians say
|
||
# "summer time". Reinaldo Goulart, a São Paulo businessman active in

# the railroad sector, writes (1999-07-06):
|
||
# The subject of time zones is currently a matter of discussion/debate in
|

# Brazil. Let's say that "the Brasília time" is considered the
|
||
# "official time" because Brasília is the capital city.
|
||
# The other three time zones are called "Brasília time "minus one" or
|
||
# "plus one" or "plus two". As far as I know there is no such
|
||
# name/designation as "Eastern Time" or "Central Time".

# So I invented the following (English-language) abbreviations for now.

# We just checked with our São Paulo office and they say the government of

# The law that claimed DST for Argentina was derogated by President Fernando

# 1 hour), and they intend to keep UTC-3 as their timezone all year round
|
||
# (that is, unless they change their mind any minute now).
|
||
#
|
||
# So we'll have to add yet another city to 'southamerica' (I think San
|
||
# Luis city is the mos populated city in the Province, so it'd be
|
||
# America/Argentina/San_Luis... of course I can't remember if San Luis's
|
||
# history of particular changes goes along with Mendoza or San Juan :-(
|
||
# (I only remember not being able to collect hard facts about San Luis
|
||
# back in 2004, when these provinces changed to UTC-4 for a few days, I
|
||
# mailed them personally and never got an answer).
|
||
|
||
# From Paul Eggert (2014-08-12):
|
||
# Unless otherwise specified, data entries are from Shanks & Pottenger through
|
||
# 1992, from the IATA otherwise. As noted below, Shanks & Pottenger say that
|
||
# America/Cordoba split into 6 subregions during 1991/1992, one of which
|
||
# was America/San_Luis, but we haven't verified this yet so for now we'll
|
||
# keep America/Cordoba a single region rather than splitting it into the
|
||
# other 5 subregions.
|
||
|
||
# From Mariano Absatz (2009-03-13):
|
||
# Yesterday (with our usual 2-day notice) the Province of San Luis
|
||
# decided that next Sunday instead of "staying" @utc-03:00 they will go
|
||
# to utc-04:00 until the second Saturday in October...
|
||
#
|
||
# The press release is at
|
||
# http://www.sanluis.gov.ar/SL/Paginas/NoticiaDetalle.asp?TemaId=1&InfoPrensaId=3102
|
||
# (I couldn't find the decree, but www.sanluis.gov.ar
|
||
# is the official page for the Province Government.)
|
||
#
|
||
# There's also a note in only one of the major national papers ...
|
||
# http://www.lanacion.com.ar/nota.asp?nota_id=1107912
|
||
#
|
||
# The press release says [quick and dirty translation]:
|
||
# ... announced that next Sunday, at 00:00, Puntanos (the San Luis
|
||
# inhabitants) will have to turn back one hour their clocks
|
||
#
|
||
# Since then, San Luis will establish its own Province timezone. Thus,
|
||
# during 2009, this timezone change will run from 00:00 the third Sunday
|
||
# in March until 24:00 of the second Saturday in October.
|
||
|
||
# From Mariano Absatz (2009-10-16):
|
||
# ...the Province of San Luis is a case in itself.
|
||
#
|
||
# The Law at
|
||
# http://www.diputadossanluis.gov.ar/diputadosasp/paginas/verNorma.asp?NormaID=276
|
||
# is ambiguous because establishes a calendar from the 2nd Sunday in
|
||
# October at 0:00 thru the 2nd Saturday in March at 24:00 and the
|
||
# complement of that starting on the 2nd Sunday of March at 0:00 and
|
||
# ending on the 2nd Saturday of March at 24:00.
|
||
#
|
||
# This clearly breaks every time the 1st of March or October is a Sunday.
|
||
#
|
||
# IMHO, the "spirit of the Law" is to make the changes at 0:00 on the 2nd
|
||
# Sunday of October and March.
|
||
#
|
||
# The problem is that the changes in the rest of the Provinces that did
|
||
# change in 2007/2008, were made according to the Federal Law and Decrees
|
||
# that did so on the 3rd Sunday of October and March.
|
||
#
|
||
# In fact, San Luis actually switched from UTC-4 to UTC-3 last Sunday
|
||
# (October 11th) at 0:00.
|
||
#
|
||
# So I guess a new set of rules, besides "Arg", must be made and the last
|
||
# America/Argentina/San_Luis entries should change to use these...
|
||
#
|
||
# I'm enclosing a patch that does what I say... regretfully, the San Luis
|
||
# timezone must be called "WART/WARST" even when most of the time (like,
|
||
# right now) WARST == ART... that is, since last Sunday, all the country
|
||
# is using UTC-3, but in my patch, San Luis calls it "WARST" and the rest
|
||
# of the country calls it "ART".
|
||
# ...
|
||
|
||
# From Alexander Krivenyshev (2010-04-09):
|
||
# According to news reports from El Diario de la República Province San
|
||
# Luis, Argentina (standard time UTC-04) will keep Daylight Saving Time
|
||
# after April 11, 2010 - will continue to have same time as rest of
|
||
# Argentina (UTC-3) (no DST).

|
||
|
||
# From Mariano Absatz (2010-04-12):
|
||
# yes...I can confirm this...and given that San Luis keeps calling
|
||
# UTC-03:00 "summer time", we should't just let San Luis go back to "Arg"
|
||
# rules...San Luis is still using "Western ARgentina Time" and it got
|
||
# stuck on Summer daylight savings time even though the summer is over.
|
||
|
||
# From Paul Eggert (2013-09-05):
|
||
# Perhaps San Luis operates on the legal fiction that it is at UTC-4
|
||
# with perpetual summer time, but ordinary usage typically seems to
|
||
# just say it's at UTC-3; see, for example,
|
||
# http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hora_oficial_argentina
|
||
# We've documented similar situations as being plain changes to
|
||
# standard time, so let's do that here too. This does not change UTC
|
||
# offsets, only tm_isdst and the time zone abbreviations. One minor
|
||
# plus is that this silences a zic complaint that there's no POSIX TZ
|
||
# setting for time stamps past 2038.
|
||
|
||
# From Paul Eggert (2013-02-21):

|
||
# From Paul Eggert (1993-11-18):
|
||
# The mayor of Rio recently attempted to change the time zone rules
|
||
# just in his city, in order to leave more summer time for the tourist trade.
|
||
# The rule change lasted only part of the day;
|
||
# the federal government refused to follow the city's rules, and business
|
||
# was in a chaos, so the mayor backed down that afternoon.
|
||
|
||
# From IATA SSIM (1996-02):
|
||
# _Only_ the following states in BR1 observe DST: Rio Grande do Sul (RS),
|
||
# Santa Catarina (SC), Paraná (PR), São Paulo (SP), Rio de Janeiro (RJ),
|
||
# Espírito Santo (ES), Minas Gerais (MG), Bahia (BA), Goiás (GO),
|
||
# Distrito Federal (DF), Tocantins (TO), Sergipe [SE] and Alagoas [AL].
|
||
# [The last three states are new to this issue of the IATA SSIM.]
|
||
|
||
# From Gwillim Law (1996-10-07):
|
||
# Geography, history (Tocantins was part of Goiás until 1989), and other
|
||
# sources of time zone information lead me to believe that AL, SE, and TO were
|
||
# always in BR1, and so the only change was whether or not they observed DST....
|
||
# The earliest issue of the SSIM I have is 2/91. Each issue from then until
|
||
# 9/95 says that DST is observed only in the ten states I quoted from 9/95,
|
||
# along with Mato Grosso (MT) and Mato Grosso do Sul (MS), which are in BR2
|
||
# (UTC-4).... The other two time zones given for Brazil are BR3, which is
|
||
# UTC-5, no DST, and applies only in the state of Acre (AC); and BR4, which is
|
||
# UTC-2, and applies to Fernando de Noronha (formerly FN, but I believe it's
|
||
# become part of the state of Pernambuco). The boundary between BR1 and BR2
|
||
# has never been clearly stated. They've simply been called East and West.
|
||
# However, some conclusions can be drawn from another IATA manual: the Airline
|
||
# Coding Directory, which lists close to 400 airports in Brazil. For each
|
||
# airport it gives a time zone which is coded to the SSIM. From that
|
||
# information, I'm led to conclude that the states of Amapá (AP), Ceará (CE),
|
||
# Maranhão (MA), Paraíba (PR), Pernambuco (PE), Piauí (PI), and Rio Grande do
|
||
# Norte (RN), and the eastern part of Pará (PA) are all in BR1 without DST.
|
||
|
||
# From Marcos Tadeu (1998-09-27):
|
||
# Brazilian official page <http://pcdsh01.on.br/verao1.html>
|
||
|
||
# From Jesper Nørgaard (2000-11-03):
|
||
# [For an official list of which regions in Brazil use which time zones, see:]
|
||
# http://pcdsh01.on.br/Fusbr.htm
|
||
# http://pcdsh01.on.br/Fusbrhv.htm
|
||
|
||
# From Celso Doria via David Madeo (2002-10-09):
|
||
# The reason for the delay this year has to do with elections in Brazil.
|
||
#
|
||
# Unlike in the United States, elections in Brazil are 100% computerized and
|
||
# the results are known almost immediately. Yesterday, it was the first
|
||
# round of the elections when 115 million Brazilians voted for President,
|
||
# Governor, Senators, Federal Deputies, and State Deputies. Nobody is
|
||
# counting (or re-counting) votes anymore and we know there will be a second
|
||
# round for the Presidency and also for some Governors. The 2nd round will
|
||
# take place on October 27th.
|
||
#
|
||
# The reason why the DST will only begin November 3rd is that the thousands
|
||
# of electoral machines used cannot have their time changed, and since the
|
||
# Constitution says the elections must begin at 8:00 AM and end at 5:00 PM,
|
||
# the Government decided to postpone DST, instead of changing the Constitution
|
||
# (maybe, for the next elections, it will be possible to change the clock)...
|
||
|
||
# From Rodrigo Severo (2004-10-04):
|
||
# It's just the biannual change made necessary by the much hyped, supposedly
|
||
# modern Brazilian eletronic voting machines which, apparently, can't deal
|
||
# with a time change between the first and the second rounds of the elections.
|
||
|
||
# From Steffen Thorsen (2007-09-20):
|
||
# Brazil will start DST on 2007-10-14 00:00 and end on 2008-02-17 00:00:

|

|
||
# From Paul Schulze (2008-06-24):
|
||
# ...by law number 11.662 of April 24, 2008 (published in the "Diario
|
||
# Oficial da União"...) in Brazil there are changes in the timezones,
|
||
# effective today (00:00am at June 24, 2008) as follows:
|
||
#
|
||
# a) The timezone UTC+5 is extinguished, with all the Acre state and the
|
||
# part of the Amazonas state that had this timezone now being put to the
|
||
# timezone UTC+4
|
||
# b) The whole Pará state now is put at timezone UTC+3, instead of just
|
||
# part of it, as was before.
|
||
#
|
||
# This change follows a proposal of senator Tiao Viana of Acre state, that
|
||
# proposed it due to concerns about open television channels displaying
|
||
# programs inappropriate to youths in the states that had the timezone
|
||
# UTC+5 too early in the night. In the occasion, some more corrections
|
||
# were proposed, trying to unify the timezones of any given state. This
|
||
# change modifies timezone rules defined in decree 2.784 of 18 June,
|
||
# 1913.
|
||
|
||

# https://www.in.gov.br/imprensa/visualiza/index.jsp?jornal=do&secao=1&pagina=1&data=25/04/2008
|
||
#
|
||
# As a result of the above Decree I believe the America/Rio_Branco
|
||
# timezone shall be modified from UTC-5 to UTC-4 and a new timezone shall
|
||
# be created to represent the...west side of the Pará State. I
|
||
# suggest this new timezone be called Santarem as the most
|
||
# important/populated city in the affected area.
|
||
#
|
||
# This new timezone would be the same as the Rio_Branco timezone up to
|
||
# the 2008/06/24 change which would be to UTC-3 instead of UTC-4.
|
||

||

|
||
#
|
||
# - 4 time zones replaced by 3 time zones - eliminating time zone UTC-05
|
||
# (state Acre and the part of the Amazonas will be UTC/GMT-04) - western
|
||
# part of Par state is moving to one timezone UTC-03 (from UTC-04).

|

|

# From Steffen Thorsen (2008-08-29):
|
||
# As announced by the government and many newspapers in Brazil late
|
||
# yesterday, Brazil will start DST on 2008-10-19 (need to change rule) and
|
||
# it will end on 2009-02-15 (current rule for Brazil is fine). Based on
|
||
# past years experience with the elections, there was a good chance that
|
||
# the start was postponed to November, but it did not happen this year.

# Chile
|

|
||
# From Eduardo Krell (1995-10-19):
|
||
# The law says to switch to DST at midnight [24:00] on the second SATURDAY
|
||
# of October.... The law is the same for March and October.
|
||
# (1998-09-29):
|
||
# Because of the drought this year, the government decided to go into
|
||
# DST earlier (saturday 9/26 at 24:00). This is a one-time change only ...
|
||
# (unless there's another dry season next year, I guess).
|
||
|
||
# From Julio I. Pacheco Troncoso (1999-03-18):
|
||
# Because of the same drought, the government decided to end DST later,
|
||
# on April 3, (one-time change).

# From Oscar van Vlijmen (2006-10-08):

# http://www.horaoficial.cl/cambio.htm
|

|
||
# From Jesper Nørgaard Welen (2006-10-08):
|
||
# I think that there are some obvious mistakes in the suggested link
|
||
# from Oscar van Vlijmen,... for instance entry 66 says that GMT-4
|
||
# ended 1990-09-12 while entry 67 only begins GMT-3 at 1990-09-15
|
||
# (they should have been 1990-09-15 and 1990-09-16 respectively), but
|
||
# anyhow it clears up some doubts too.
|
||
|
||
# From Paul Eggert (2014-08-12):
|
||
# The following data entries for Chile and America/Santiago are from
|
||
# <http://www.horaoficial.cl/horaof.htm> (2006-09-20), transcribed by
|
||
# Jesper Nørgaard Welen. The data entries for Pacific/Easter are from Shanks
|
||
# & Pottenger, except with DST transitions after 1932 cloned from
|
||
# America/Santiago. The pre-1980 Pacific/Easter data entries are dubious,
|
||
# but we have no other source.
|
||
|
||
# From Germán Poo-Caamaño (2008-03-03):
|
||
# Due to drought, Chile extends Daylight Time in three weeks. This
|

# is one-time change (Saturday 3/29 at 24:00 for America/Santiago

|

# From Arthur David Olson (2011-03-02):

# Chile's clocks will go back an hour this year on the 7th of May instead
|

# of this Saturday. They will go forward again the 3rd Saturday in

||
# August, not in October as they have since 1968. This is a pilot plan

# which will be reevaluated in 2012.
|
||
|
||
# From Mauricio Parada (2012-02-22), translated by Glenn Eychaner (2012-02-23):
|

# http://www.minenergia.cl/ministerio/noticias/generales/gobierno-anuncia-fechas-de-cambio-de.html
|

# The Chilean Government has decided to postpone the entrance into winter time

# (to leave DST) from March 11 2012 to April 28th 2012. The decision has not
|

# been yet formalized but it will within the next days.
|
||
# Quote from the website communication:
|
||
#
|
||
# 6. For the year 2012, the dates of entry into winter time will be as follows:
|
||
# a. Saturday April 28, 2012, clocks should go back 60 minutes; that is, at
|
||
# 23:59:59, instead of passing to 0:00, the time should be adjusted to be 23:00
|
||
# of the same day.
|
||
# b. Saturday, September 1, 2012, clocks should go forward 60 minutes; that is,
|
||
# at 23:59:59, instead of passing to 0:00, the time should be adjusted to be
|
||
# 01:00 on September 2.

# From Steffen Thorsen (2013-02-15):
|
||
# According to several news sources, Chile has extended DST this year,
|

# they will end DST later and start DST earlier than planned. They

# From Falkland Islands Government Office, London (2001-01-22)

||
# via Jesper Nørgaard:
|
||
# ... the clocks revert back to Local Mean Time at 2 am on Sunday 15
|
||
# April 2001 and advance one hour to summer time at 2 am on Sunday 2

# September. It is anticipated that the clocks will revert back at 2

|
||
|
||
# From Rives McDow (2001-02-13):
|
||
#
|
||
# I have communicated several times with people there, and the last
|
||
# time I had communications that was helpful was in 1998. Here is
|
||
# what was said then:
|
||
#
|
||
# "The general rule was that Stanley used daylight saving and the Camp
|
||
# did not. However for various reasons many people in the Camp have
|
||
# started to use daylight saving (known locally as 'Stanley Time')
|
||
# There is no rule as to who uses daylight saving - it is a matter of
|
||
# personal choice and so it is impossible to draw a map showing who
|
||
# uses it and who does not. Any list would be out of date as soon as
|
||
# it was produced. This year daylight saving ended on April 18/19th
|
||
# and started again on September 12/13th. I do not know what the rule
|
||
# is, but can find out if you like. We do not change at the same time
|
||
# as UK or Chile."
|
||
#
|
||
# I did have in my notes that the rule was "Second Saturday in Sep at
|
||
# 0:00 until third Saturday in Apr at 0:00". I think that this does
|
||
# not agree in some cases with Shanks; is this true?
|
||
#
|
||
# Also, there is no mention in the list that some areas in the
|
||
# Falklands do not use DST. I have found in my communications there
|
||
# that these areas are on the western half of East Falkland and all of
|
||
# West Falkland. Stanley is the only place that consistently observes
|
||
# DST. Again, as in other places in the world, the farmers don't like
|
||
# it. West Falkland is almost entirely sheep farmers.
|
||
#
|
||
# I know one lady there that keeps a list of which farm keeps DST and
|
||
# which doesn't each year. She runs a shop in Stanley, and says that
|
||
# the list changes each year. She uses it to communicate to her
|
||
# customers, catching them when they are home for lunch or dinner.
|
||
|
||
# From Paul Eggert (2001-03-05):
|
||
# For now, we'll just record the time in Stanley, since we have no
|
||
# better info.
|
||
|
||
# From Steffen Thorsen (2011-04-01):
|
||
# The Falkland Islands will not turn back clocks this winter, but stay on
|
||
# daylight saving time.
|
||
#
|
||
# One source:

|
||
#
|
||
# We have gotten this confirmed by a clerk of the legislative assembly:
|
||
# Normally the clocks revert to Local Mean Time (UTC/GMT -4 hours) on the
|
||
# third Sunday of April at 0200hrs and advance to Summer Time (UTC/GMT -3
|
||
# hours) on the first Sunday of September at 0200hrs.
|
||
#
|
||
# IMPORTANT NOTE: During 2011, on a trial basis, the Falkland Islands
|
||
# will not revert to local mean time, but clocks will remain on Summer
|
||
# time (UTC/GMT - 3 hours) throughout the whole of 2011. Any long term
|
||
# change to local time following the trial period will be notified.
|

#

# From Andrew Newman (2012-02-24)
|
||
# A letter from Justin McPhee, Chief Executive,
|
||
# Cable & Wireless Falkland Islands (dated 2012-02-22)
|
||
# states...
|
||
# The current Atlantic/Stanley entry under South America expects the
|
||
# clocks to go back to standard Falklands Time (FKT) on the 15th April.
|
||
# The database entry states that in 2011 Stanley was staying on fixed
|
||
# summer time on a trial basis only. FIG need to contact IANA and/or
|
||
# the maintainers of the database to inform them we're adopting
|
||
# the same policy this year and suggest recommendations for future years.
|
||
#
|
||
# For now we will assume permanent summer time for the Falklands
|
||
# until advised differently (to apply for 2012 and beyond, after the 2011
|
||
# experiment was apparently successful.)
