Western European Time

Western European Time is equal to the Coordinated Universal Time standard, written as an offset of UTC + 00:00. That means to find the standard time in the zone you need only refer to Coordinated Universal Time.

Territories observing the time zone are primarily in Europe and Africa.

Depending on where the time zone is being referenced, it may be called one of these additional names:

Greenwich Mean Time or GMT

Western European Time or WET

Westeuropäische Zeit or WEZ (in German)

In many of the areas where this time zone is used, during fall to winter months Western European Time is observed, and then during Daylight Saving (spring to summer months) Western European Summer Time or WEST is used.
