The city runs on UTC+6:00 year-round, meaning local time in Khagrachhari is always six hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time. Bangladesh currently does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset remains stable in every month of the year.
Khagrachhari is located in the Chattogram Hill Tracts area of southeastern Bangladesh, near the border region with India and not far from routes connecting to Chattogram and the wider southeast.

In regional terms, Khagrachhari is 30 minutes behind India Standard Time (UTC+5:30) and 30 minutes ahead of Myanmar Time (UTC+6:30). That makes it important to check exact offsets when arranging cross-border communication, humanitarian work, logistics, or travel in South and Southeast Asia, especially because neighboring countries may use different offsets even when they are geographically close.
