About Kampot Time Zone

Kampot, Cambodia uses the IANA time zone Asia/Phnom_Penh, which is the standard zone for Cambodia’s entire country-wide timekeeping. The city runs on UTC+7 all year, so the clock does not move forward or back during the year.

Cambodia’s fixed UTC+7 schedule also makes Kampot easy to coordinate with nearby mainland Southeast Asian markets such as Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam, which share the same general regional working rhythm. For teams in finance, shipping, and regional sales, that predictability reduces scheduling errors when planning calls across Asia.

Kampot is in southern Cambodia near the Gulf of Thailand, and its time zone aligns with the country’s national business day rather than any local variation.
