About Gulf Standard Time (GST)
Gulf Standard Time (GST, IANA: Asia/Dubai, Asia/Muscat) is the civil time of the Arabian Gulf states, set at UTC+4:00 year-round (no DST). GST serves approximately 60 million people across: United Arab Emirates (UAE), Oman, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia (most), Mauritius, Réunion (French territory), Seychelles, Russia's Samara Time region. The 'Gulf Standard Time' specifically refers to UAE + Oman in regional aviation/business usage. GST shares the same UTC offset as Mauritius Time (MUT), Armenia Time (AMT), Azerbaijan Time (AZT), Georgia Time (GET), and is +1 hour ahead of Moscow / Saudi Arabia. Major GST cities: Dubai (3.5M city, 4.8M metro — UAE + global trade hub), Abu Dhabi (1.5M city, 2.9M metro — UAE capital), Sharjah (1.7M), Muscat Oman (1.7M metro — capital), Salalah Oman (370K), Baku Azerbaijan (2.3M), Yerevan Armenia (1.1M), Tbilisi Georgia (1.2M). Affects: DFM (Dubai Financial Market) + ADX (Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange) trading hours, Emirates Airlines / Etihad Airways hub-operations scheduling, Hajj/Umrah pilgrimage timings for travelers transiting Dubai, Dubai Expo + Burj Khalifa fountain shows + Dubai Mall operating hours.
About Western European Time (WET)
Western European Time (WET, IANA: Europe/Lisbon, Atlantic/Faroe) is the civil time during winter for Portugal mainland (excluding the Azores), the Canary Islands (Spain), the Faroe Islands (Denmark), and Iceland uses WET-equivalent year-round (no DST in Iceland). WET is set at UTC+0 — the same offset as GMT — but the distinction is that GMT refers specifically to the time at the Greenwich Observatory while WET is the formal civil-time designation in continental Western European countries. WET observes Daylight Saving Time (switching to WEST — Western European Summer Time = UTC+1) from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC. The Azores archipelago (Portuguese Atlantic territory) is one hour behind mainland Portugal at AZOT = UTC-1:00 (winter) / AZOST = UTC+0:00 (summer). WET serves approximately 17 million people. Major cities: Lisbon (550K city, 2.9M metro), Porto (240K), Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (380K), Santa Cruz de Tenerife (220K), Reykjavík (130K — Iceland on WET-equivalent), Tórshavn Faroe (13K).
