Complete Time Zone Guide for Mozambique
SyncMyTime displays accurate time for Maputo. Central Africa Time (CAT, UTC+2) is maintained year-round.
Time Zone History
Mozambique adopted permanent UTC+2 using Central Africa Time after independence from Portugal in 1975. The country maintained CAT through devastating civil war (1977-1992) and subsequent recovery. No daylight saving time is observed. CAT reflects Mozambique's eastern African coastal position and facilitates coordination with regional neighbors.
Culture & Daily Rhythm
Mozambican daily life blends Bantu traditions with Portuguese colonial influence in Africa's third-largest Portuguese-speaking nation. The workday typically runs 8 AM-5 PM. Portuguese is official language but local languages (Makhuwa, Tsonga, Sena) dominate regions. Marrabenta music is culturally significant. Coastal areas show more cosmopolitan influences. Cashew production follows seasonal patterns. Markets are vibrant social centers. Post-war recovery and development continue. Indian Ocean fishing traditions persist.
