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).

About Eastern European Summer Time (EEST)

Eastern European Summer Time (EEST, IANA: Europe/Athens during DST window) is the summer-time variant of EET, set at UTC+3:00 — observed from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC. EEST shares the same UTC offset as Moscow Standard Time (MSK), Saudi Arabia Standard Time (AST-SA), and East Africa Time (EAT). After the 2018 EU proposal to abolish twice-yearly clock changes (postponed indefinitely), the question of whether EEST countries would permanently stay on summer time (UTC+3) or revert to year-round EET (UTC+2) remains unresolved. EEST serves the same ~50 million population as EET (Greece, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Finland). Affects: ASE (Athens Stock Exchange) summer trading hours, summer-festival schedules in Greek islands (Mykonos, Santorini, Ios), Finnish midsummer Juhannus celebrations, and Black Sea cruise-ship port arrival times at Constanța Romania + Varna Bulgaria + Odesa Ukraine.
