About Moscow Standard Time (MSK)

Moscow Standard Time (MSK, IANA: Europe/Moscow) is the civil time of European Russia (west of the Ural Mountains) and the Russian capital, set at UTC+3:00 year-round. Russia abolished Daylight Saving Time in 2011 (initially staying permanently on UTC+4 summer time), then in 2014 the Russian Federation Council reverted the country to permanent standard time, with Moscow on UTC+3 year-round, so MSK has been observed without seasonal change since October 2014. Russia spans 11 time zones (UTC+2 Kaliningrad to UTC+12 Kamchatka), of which MSK is the most populous and the reference time for the federal government. MSK serves the European Russia population of ~110 million across the Central Federal District (Moscow oblast, Moscow city, surrounding oblasts), Northwestern Federal District (St. Petersburg + Leningrad oblast), Southern Federal District (Krasnodar, Rostov-na-Donu, Sochi), and Volga Federal District (Nizhny Novgorod). MSK is identical in offset to East Africa Time (EAT), Saudi Arabian Standard Time (AST-SA), and EEST in summer. Major MSK cities: Moscow (12.6M), Saint Petersburg (5.4M), Nizhny Novgorod (1.2M), Kazan (1.3M), Rostov-on-Don (1.1M), Sochi (450K). Affects: MOEX (Moscow Exchange) trading hours, Roscosmos Mission Control operations from Korolev, Bolshoi Theatre performance schedules.

About New Zealand Standard Time (NZST)

New Zealand Standard Time (NZST, IANA: Pacific/Auckland) is the civil time of New Zealand mainland (North Island + South Island), set at UTC+12:00. NZST is observed in winter; New Zealand switches to New Zealand Daylight Time (NZDT = UTC+13) from the last Sunday of September to the first Sunday of April per the Time Act of 1974 + Standard Time Act of 2007 (a slightly different DST schedule than Australia + most of the Northern Hemisphere). The Chatham Islands archipelago (Chatham, Pitt Islands — 800 km east of NZ mainland) uses Chatham Standard Time (CHAST = UTC+12:45) and Chatham Daylight Time (CHADT = UTC+13:45) — one of the world's only 45-minute-offset zones along with Nepal UTC+5:45 and Eucla WA UTC+8:45. NZST serves approximately 5.2 million New Zealanders. NZST is identical in offset to Fiji Time (FJT), Marshall Islands Time, Tuvalu Time, Wallis and Futuna Time. Major NZST cities: Auckland (1.7M metro — North Island), Wellington (210K city, 425K metro — capital), Christchurch (380K — South Island), Hamilton (180K), Tauranga (155K), Dunedin (135K), Queenstown (25K — tourist hub + Lord of the Rings filming locations). Affects: NZX (New Zealand Stock Exchange) trading hours, All Blacks rugby match scheduling, Hobbiton + Milford Sound tourism operating hours.
