UTC and UTC+01:00 on the World Map
The map below highlights the UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) and UTC+01:00 (Western European Time) timezone regions across the globe.
UTC – Coordinated Universal Time
UTC+00:00Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the world's primary time standard, used as the basis for civil time worldwide.
- •UTC is the basis for all civil time zones worldwide.
- •The abbreviation 'UTC' is a compromise between English (CUT) and French (TUC).
- •UTC is based on atomic clocks and is accurate to within a nanosecond per day.
- •Servers and databases worldwide store timestamps in UTC to avoid timezone confusion.
- •Leap seconds are occasionally added to UTC to keep it aligned with Earth's rotation.
WET – Western European Time
UTC+00:00Western European Time (WET) is the time zone for Portugal, Morocco, and the Canary Islands, same as UTC+00:00.
- •Portugal is the only mainland European country in the WET time zone.
- •The Canary Islands are on WET despite being part of Spain (which uses CET).
- •WET is identical to GMT and UTC+00:00.
Comparing Time Zones: UTC and Casablanca

Why people convert UTC to Casablanca time
- Scheduling a call from UTC to Casablanca: a 10:00 AM start in UTC lands at 11:00 AM in Casablanca, so you can confirm the slot without doing the arithmetic yourself.
- Finding shared working hours: both UTC and Casablanca are inside the 9-to-5 working day between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM UTC time (10:00 AM–5:00 PM UTC+01:00). That is roughly 7 hours of usable overlap.
- Watching a live event or market open: UTC viewers need 10:00 AM in Casablanca to catch a 9:00 AM start there, and 11:00 PM if the event is anchored to UTC.
- Always state the zone abbreviation, not just the hour. "3:00 PM UTC" is unambiguous; "3 PM" across a +1h gap is not.
- Block 9:00 AM–4:00 PM UTC as the recurring meeting window if you work primarily from UTC and need Casablanca colleagues present.
- Casablanca: Clocks fall back on Sun, Feb 7, 2027. Any meeting series spanning that date will shift by an hour in local time.
About UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is the primary time standard by which the world regulates clocks and time. It is effectively the successor to GMT and is based on International Atomic Time with leap seconds added to keep it synchronized with Earth's rotation.

About WET (Western European Time)
Western European Time (WET) is used in Portugal, the Canary Islands (Spain), Morocco, and several other locations. It is equivalent to GMT/UTC. During summer, Portugal and the Canary Islands switch to WEST (Western European Summer Time, UTC+01:00).
