Complete Time Zone Guide for Paraguay
SyncMyTime displays accurate time for Asunción and Paraguayan cities. Paraguay Time (PYT, UTC-4) in winter and Paraguay Summer Time (PYST, UTC-3) in summer.
Time Zone History
Paraguay observes daylight saving time, one of few South American countries still doing so. The country shifts between UTC-4 (winter) and UTC-3 (summer), with dates set by government decree and sometimes changing with short notice. This irregular pattern reflects ongoing energy policy debates and sometimes creates coordination challenges with neighboring countries.
Culture & Daily Rhythm
Paraguayan daily life blends Guaraní indigenous and Spanish colonial traditions uniquely. The workday often runs 7 AM-12 PM and 3-7 PM with long siesta breaks during extreme heat. Guaraní language and culture influence timing concepts. The 'siesta' tradition persists strongly. Evening terere (cold mate) social gatherings are central. Rural areas follow more traditional agricultural timing patterns.
