About Amsterdam time
Amsterdam aligns with many Central European business hubs. Use the actual date for North American calls because the US and Europe change clocks on different weekends.
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, uses Europe/Amsterdam. An IANA identifier names the set of rules used for this location; it can include historical changes as well as different offsets within a year.
Daylight saving and UTC offset
The 2026 reference data includes UTC+01:00 and UTC+02:00. Select the actual meeting date: one fixed offset will not describe the whole year.
These offsets describe the selected reference year, not every year in the city’s history. The live clock above and date-aware converter use the time-zone rules installed in your browser. Update your device when a government announces a change.
