Complete Time Zone Guide for United Arab Emirates
SyncMyTime provides accurate time for Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and UAE cities. Gulf Standard Time (GST, UTC+4) is maintained year-round across all emirates.
Time Zone History
The UAE adopted Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) at federation in 1971, selecting a time zone that reflects the country's position on the Arabian Peninsula. The country has never implemented daylight saving time, maintaining year-round consistency that supports 24/7 business operations, tourism, and the crucial aviation hub status of Dubai International Airport.
Culture & Daily Rhythm
UAE daily life blends ultra-modern business culture with Islamic traditions. The workweek runs Sunday-Thursday with Friday as the primary day of prayer. Business hours often run 9 AM-6 PM with afternoon breaks during summer heat. Dubai and Abu Dhabi operate as 24-hour cities with shopping malls and restaurants open late. Ramadan shifts schedules significantly with reduced business hours.
