Daylight saving time was again reintroduced between 1939 and 1968. [2] Between 1941 and 1946, daylight saving time commenced on the first Sunday in March and ended in late October, and between 1947 and 1967 it commenced on the first Sunday in April. In all instances since 1941, daylight saving time commenced at 02:00 and ended at 02:00. [3]
Morocco, including the portion of Western Sahara that it administers, also observes an annual time change but not related to seasonal daylight.

The main purpose of this page is to list the current standard time offsets of different countries, territories and regions. Information on daylight saving time or historical changes in offsets can be found in the individual offset articles (e.g. UTC+01:00) or the country-specific time articles (e.g. Time in Russia).

France, including its overseas territories, has the most time zones with 12 (13 including its claim in Antarctica and all other counties).

Iceland's high latitude (the Reykjavík region, home to nearly two-thirds of the country's people, is at 64°N) means that sunset and sunrise times change by many hours over the year, and the effect of changing the clock by one hour would, in comparison, be small. Russia used "permanent summer time" from 2011 to 2014.
