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 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.
