About Togo's time

A single time zone.

Togo uses a single time zone, Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+00:00), all year round, without daylight saving time changes. That fits its longitude: the country lies just east of the prime meridian.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Togo's time zone, daylight saving rules, and how to handle it in software. Can't find what you need? Email [email protected].

What timezone is Togo in?
Togo uses Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), which is UTC+00:00, and does not observe daylight saving time. This is the same as Coordinated Universal Time and is shared by several other West African countries.
Does Togo observe daylight saving time?
No. Togo uses GMT year-round with no seasonal adjustments for daylight saving.
Is Togo in the same time zone as the UK?
Yes and no. During UK winter (standard time), both are at UTC+00:00. During UK summer (BST), the UK moves to UTC+01:00 while Togo remains at UTC+00:00.
How does Togo's time compare to neighboring countries?
Togo's western and northern neighbours, Ghana and Burkina Faso, also use UTC+00:00 without daylight saving time. Benin, to the east, uses UTC+01:00 all year, so it is always one hour ahead of Togo.
Is there more than one time zone in Togo?
No. Togo uses a single time zone, Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+00:00), for the entire country.
