Complete Time Zone Guide for Thailand
SyncMyTime displays accurate time for Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Thai cities. Indochina Time (ICT, UTC+7) is maintained year-round.
Time Zone History
Thailand adopted permanent UTC+7 using Indochina Time. The kingdom has never observed daylight saving time, preferring year-round consistency. As the only Southeast Asian nation never colonized, Thailand independently chose its time zone. ICT reflects Thailand's central position in mainland Southeast Asia and facilitates regional ASEAN coordination.
Culture & Daily Rhythm
Thai daily life revolves around Theravada Buddhism (95% of population) and constitutional monarchy with deep royal reverence. The workday typically runs 8 AM-5 PM. Thai is official language. Buddhist temples (wats) structure communities. Respect and non-confrontation (saving face) are culturally paramount. Street food culture is globally renowned. Sanuk (fun) principle affects social life. Beaches and islands drive tourism. Muay Thai boxing is traditional sport. Rice cultivation follows monsoon patterns. Bangkok's cosmopolitan hustle contrasts with rural agricultural rhythms.
