About Central Africa Time (CAT)

Central Africa Time (CAT, IANA: Africa/Johannesburg, Africa/Harare) is the civil time for Central and Southern African countries, set at UTC+2:00 year-round (no DST). CAT serves approximately 200 million people across: Botswana, Burundi, DR Congo (eastern half), Egypt (since 2014 reverting from earlier DST trial; year-round UTC+2), eSwatini (Swaziland), Lesotho, Libya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia (since 2017 reverting from earlier WAT trial; year-round UTC+2), Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan (UTC+2 since 2017), Zambia, Zimbabwe. CAT shares the same UTC offset as Eastern European Time (EET) in winter, Egypt Standard Time (EET-Egypt), and Israel Standard Time (IST). Major CAT cities: Johannesburg (5.6M city, 10M metro — economic capital of Sub-Saharan Africa), Cape Town (4.7M metro), Cairo (10M city, 22M metro — the largest city in Africa and the Middle East), Khartoum (5.3M), Lusaka (2.7M), Harare (1.6M), Tripoli (1.2M), Pretoria (740K). Affects: JSE Johannesburg Stock Exchange trading, Cairo + Alexandria Stock Exchange (EGX) trading hours, Kruger National Park safari schedules.

About Colombia Time (COT)

Colombia Time (COT, IANA: America/Bogota) is the official civil time of the Republic of Colombia, set at UTC-5:00 year-round. Colombia abolished Daylight Saving Time in 1993 after a brief experimental DST period (1992-1993), so COT is observed without seasonal change since then. COT serves approximately 52 million people across Colombia's 32 departments + Bogotá Capital District. Major cities: Bogotá (8M city, 11M metro — capital), Medellín (2.5M city, 4M metro), Cali (2.3M), Barranquilla (1.3M), Cartagena (1M), Cúcuta (700K), Bucaramanga (600K). COT is identical in offset to Eastern Standard Time (EST) US, Cuban Standard Time (CST-Cu), Peru Time (PET), and Ecuador Time (ECT). The San Andrés and Providencia archipelago in the Caribbean Sea (closer to Nicaragua than to mainland Colombia) also observes COT. Affects: Bolsa de Valores de Colombia (BVC) trading hours, Ecopetrol oil-pipeline operations, Café de Colombia harvest-season coordination, and Cartagena de Indias cruise-ship port arrivals scheduling.
