Cyprus to move clocks forward for summer time on March 29

Cyprus will switch to summer time in the early hours of Sunday, March 29, when clocks will move forward by one hour at 3:00 a.m., according to an announcement by the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry. The change marks the start of longer daylight hours, a practice observed annually across the country.

The transition to summer time is designed to make better use of natural daylight during the warmer months, offering extended evening light for both daily activities and businesses. Residents are reminded to adjust their clocks accordingly to avoid any disruption to schedules.

Summer time will remain in effect until Sunday, October 25, 2026, when clocks will be set back by one hour. The seasonal time change is implemented uniformly across all European Union member states, ensuring consistency in timekeeping throughout the region.
