About Głogów Time Zone
Głogów uses the Europe/Warsaw IANA time zone, the standard time zone for Poland. The city follows Central European Time (CET), UTC+1 during the standard-time part of the year and Central European Summer Time (CEST), UTC+2 during daylight saving time. Like the rest of Poland, Głogów changes clocks in line with European Union DST rules.
Daylight saving time in Głogów begins on the last Sunday in March, when clocks move forward from 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM local time, and ends on the last Sunday in October, when clocks move back from 3:00 AM to 2:00 AM local time. For 2025, that means DST starts on 30 March 2025 and ends on 26 October 2025. This seasonal shift matters when scheduling calls with North America, because the time difference between Poland and the US can temporarily change by one hour during the weeks when DST start and end dates do not match.
Głogów is in western Poland, in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship near the German border region, so its practical time coordination often overlaps with Central European business centers such as Berlin, Prague, and Vienna, all of which use the same broad CET/CEST pattern. To the east, countries such as Ukraine may follow different UTC offsets and DST rules depending on the year, while to the west the United Kingdom is usually one hour behind Głogów. This makes Głogów well placed for cross-border manufacturing, road freight, and regional business operations across Central Europe.

Time Differences from Głogów
Głogów’s time difference with other cities depends on whether Poland and the comparison location are on standard time or daylight saving time on the same date. Because Głogów follows Europe/Warsaw, it is aligned with much of continental Europe but shifts relative to countries with different DST calendars.
