About London's Time Zone

London operates on the Greenwich Mean Time time zone (GMT).

With a metropolitan population of approximately 9,002,488, it is one of the most significant cities in United Kingdom.

London observes Daylight Saving Time — the UTC offset shifts by one hour in summer, making scheduling with international partners important to track.

The IANA timezone identifier for London is Europe/London, used by operating systems and programming languages worldwide.

When scheduling calls, meetings, or travel involving London, always verify the current UTC offset since daylight saving transitions can shift the relative time difference with other regions.
