This helps remote teams, exporters, and international families quickly see whether Shīrvān’s daytime overlaps with Gulf business hours, European office hours, or the US workday.
Select a time range on the grid: Click Select, then drag across the Shīrvān row from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM to highlight a working-hour window in purple; you can adjust it using the left and right handles or move the whole block by dragging the center. For example, 9:00 AM in Shīrvān is 5:30 AM in London, 12:30 AM in New York, 8:30 AM in Dubai, 1:00 PM in Tokyo, and 4:30 PM in Sydney, which immediately shows that a morning meeting in Shīrvān works well for Dubai and Tokyo but is too early for Europe and North America.
Export or share the selected time: Once a range is selected, use the export options for ICS download, Google Calendar, Gmail, Copy to clipboard, or Share link to send the chosen slot to colleagues or clients. This is especially practical when coordinating a cross-border meeting, sending a confirmed appointment to a supplier, or making sure everyone sees the event converted into their own local calendar automatically.
About Shīrvān Time Zone
Shīrvān uses the Asia/Tehran IANA time zone, which is the standard time zone used across Iran. The city operates at UTC+3:30, meaning local time in Shīrvān is three hours and thirty minutes ahead of Coordinated Universal Time. This half-hour offset is important because it differs from the more common full-hour offsets used in many other countries, so international scheduling requires careful conversion.
Iran currently does not observe daylight saving time, so Shīrvān remains on UTC+3:30 year-round. Since the 2022 legal change in Iran, the country no longer shifts clocks forward in spring or back in autumn, which simplifies planning compared with places like London, New York, or Sydney that still change offsets seasonally. That means the time difference between Shīrvān and DST-observing cities changes during the year even though Shīrvān itself stays constant.
Geographically, Shīrvān is located in North Khorasan Province in northeastern Iran, relatively close to the country’s border region with Turkmenistan. Its time is 30 minutes ahead of Dubai (UTC+4? actually Dubai is UTC+4, so Shīrvān is 30 minutes behind Dubai) and 30 minutes behind Gulf cities such as Dubai, while it is behind East Asian centers like Tokyo and ahead of most of Europe. This makes Shīrvān moderately well positioned for same-day communication with the Gulf and parts of Asia, but less convenient for early live coordination with the eastern United States.
Shīrvān City Details
Shīrvān is a city in Iran with a population of 82,790, making it a significant urban center in North Khorasan Province. Its geographic coordinates are 37.39669° N, 57.92952° E, placing it in northeastern Iran along regional routes that connect inland Iranian cities with the broader northeast corridor.
The local currency is the Iranian rial (IRR), which is the official currency used for everyday transactions, pricing, and local business activity. For international phone calls, Shīrvān uses Iran’s country dialing code +98, so anyone calling from abroad would begin with +98 before the local area number.
These details matter for practical planning beyond time conversion. If you are arranging a business call, shipment, hotel booking, or family contact in Shīrvān, knowing the correct currency, dialing code, and exact location helps avoid mistakes in scheduling, payment expectations, and travel coordination.
Time Differences from Shīrvān
Shīrvān is in UTC+3:30 year-round, so its time difference against other cities depends partly on whether those locations are on standard time or daylight saving time.
New York: Shīrvān is 8 hours 30 minutes ahead of New York during Eastern Standard Time (EST, UTC-5) and 7 hours 30 minutes ahead during Eastern Daylight Time (EDT, UTC-4). When it is 9:00 AM in Shīrvān, it is 12:30 AM in New York during EST or 1:30 AM during EDT, so same-day morning calls from Iran are usually impractical for the US East Coast.
London: Shīrvān is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of London during Greenwich Mean Time (GMT, UTC+0) and 2 hours 30 minutes ahead during British Summer Time (BST, UTC+1). When it is 9:00 AM in Shīrvān, it is 5:30 AM in London during GMT or 6:30 AM during BST, which means late afternoon in Shīrvān is usually better for UK calls.
Tokyo: Shīrvān is 5 hours 30 minutes behind Tokyo (JST, UTC+9) all year because Japan does not use daylight saving time. When it is 9:00 AM in Shīrvān, it is 2:30 PM in Tokyo, which creates a useful overlap between Shīrvān’s morning and Tokyo’s afternoon for trade, manufacturing, and logistics conversations.
Sydney: Shīrvān is 7 hours 30 minutes behind Sydney during Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST, UTC+10) and 8 hours 30 minutes behind during Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT, UTC+11). When it is 9:00 AM in Shīrvān, it is 4:30 PM in Sydney during AEST or 5:30 PM during AEDT, so Shīrvān mornings can still catch the end of the Australian business day.
Dubai: Shīrvān is 30 minutes behind Dubai (UTC+4) throughout the year because Dubai does not observe daylight saving time. When it is 9:00 AM in Shīrvān, it is 9:30 AM in Dubai, making UAE-Iran scheduling one of the easiest regional time comparisons for trade, aviation, and commercial coordination.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time zone is Shīrvān in?
Shīrvān is in the Asia/Tehran time zone, which is the standard IANA time zone used for cities across Iran. Its local time is UTC+3:30, and that half-hour offset is important because it differs from the whole-hour offsets used in many countries.
Does Shīrvān observe daylight saving time?
No, Shīrvān currently does not observe daylight saving time. Iran now stays on UTC+3:30 all year, so clocks in Shīrvān do not move forward in spring or back in autumn, although the time gap versus cities like London, New York, and Sydney still changes when those places switch their own clocks.
What is the time difference between Shīrvān and New York?
The difference depends on the season in New York. Shīrvān is 8 hours 30 minutes ahead when New York is on EST and 7 hours 30 minutes ahead when New York is on EDT; for example, 9:00 AM in Shīrvān is 12:30 AM in New York during EST or 1:30 AM during EDT.
What is the best time to call Shīrvān from the US or UK?
From the UK, the best time is usually late morning to early afternoon London time, which corresponds to early afternoon to late afternoon in Shīrvān and fits normal business hours on both sides. From the US, especially the East Coast, the most practical option is often early morning in New York, which lines up with late afternoon or evening in Shīrvān; for the West Coast, scheduling is harder and often requires one side to meet outside standard office hours.
What is the UTC offset for Shīrvān?
Shīrvān’s UTC offset is UTC+3:30. In practical terms, that means if it is 12:00 PM UTC, it is 3:30 PM in Shīrvān, and this remains true throughout the year because the city does not currently use daylight saving time.
What currency does Shīrvān use?
Shīrvān uses the Iranian rial (IRR), the official currency of Iran. If you are arranging travel, local payments, or business costs in Shīrvān, prices will normally be denominated in rials, although in everyday conversation within Iran you may also hear informal references to toman-based pricing.
How far ahead is Shīrvān from London and Dubai?
Shīrvān is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of London during GMT and 2 hours 30 minutes ahead during BST. Compared with Dubai, Shīrvān is 30 minutes behind, so regional scheduling with the UAE is much easier than scheduling with Western Europe.
Is Shīrvān the same time as Tehran?
Yes, Shīrvān and Tehran use the same Asia/Tehran time zone. There is no domestic time difference between the two cities, so if it is 3:00 PM in Tehran, it is also 3:00 PM in Shīrvān.
