Frequently asked questions

What is the time difference between GMT and CET?+

Does GMT or CET observe daylight saving time?+

Paris observes daylight saving time; GMT does not, so the gap changes when Paris springs forward or falls back. Times on this page always reflect the current local rules.

Standard 9–5 working hours in GMT and Paris overlap from 9 AM to 3 PM GMT (11 AM–5 PM CET). Schedule calls inside this window to keep both sides in normal business hours.
