This applies to Qaraçuxur as part of the greater Baku metropolitan area on the Absheron Peninsula.
Azerbaijan does not currently observe daylight saving time, so Qaraçuxur stays on UTC+4 year-round. The country ended seasonal clock changes in 2016, which means there are no spring-forward or fall-back transitions to account for when scheduling calls, flights, or cross-border operations. That makes time planning more predictable than in countries such as the UK, US, or much of Europe, where offsets change in March and October or November.
