Convert UTC to Casablanca time: when it is 12:00 UTC it is 13:00 in Casablanca in January and 13:00 in July. Casablanca is on UTC+00:00 in standard time and UTC+01:00 in daylight saving time. The full 24-hour conversion table is below, and the UTC converter does the conversion live for any date and time.
Try the tool: UTC Converter — convert any UTC time to Casablanca time, or Casablanca time back to UTC, with the offset shown.
Current UTC time and the time in Casablanca
UTC is the world's reference time — it never observes daylight saving, and every other time zone is defined as an offset from it. The table shows four reference instants and what time they are in Casablanca, in January and in July.
| UTC | Casablanca in January | Casablanca in July |
|---|---|---|
| 00:00 | 01:00 | 01:00 |
| 06:00 | 07:00 | 07:00 |
| 12:00 | 13:00 | 13:00 |
| 18:00 | 19:00 | 19:00 |
If the January and July columns are the same, Casablanca's offset does not change — it does not observe daylight saving. If they differ by an hour, that hour is daylight saving, and the Casablanca DST 2026 page gives the exact dates. The world clock shows the current time in Casablanca live, and the time in Casablanca page explains the city's time zone in full.
Casablanca's offset from UTC
Casablanca is on UTC+00:00 in winter and UTC+01:00 in summer, when daylight saving is in effect.
| Period | Offset | In effect |
|---|---|---|
| Standard time | UTC+00:00 | Late autumn to early spring |
| Daylight saving time | UTC+01:00 | From 22 March 2026 to 20 September 2026 in 2026 |
| From the last 2026 change onwards | UTC+00:00 | Permanent — no clock changes in 2027 |
| Right now (11 November 2026) | UTC+00:00 | Standard time is in effect |
The offset is the only number you need. To convert UTC to Casablanca time, add the offset. To convert Casablanca time to UTC, subtract it. The offset to use is the one in effect on the date you are converting — not today's offset, and not the offset you remember from last summer. The converter on this page's tool does that for you: enter the UTC time and the date, and it looks up the offset from the IANA database for that date.
UTC to Casablanca — full conversion table
Every hour of the day, converted from UTC to Casablanca local time. The January column uses the winter offset (UTC+01:00); the July column uses the summer offset (UTC+01:00). The two columns are identical, because Casablanca does not observe daylight saving.
| UTC | Casablanca (January) | Casablanca (July) |
|---|---|---|
| 00:00 | 01:00 | 01:00 |
| 01:00 | 02:00 | 02:00 |
| 02:00 | 03:00 | 03:00 |
| 03:00 | 04:00 | 04:00 |
| 04:00 | 05:00 | 05:00 |
| 05:00 | 06:00 | 06:00 |
| 06:00 | 07:00 | 07:00 |
| 07:00 | 08:00 | 08:00 |
| 08:00 | 09:00 | 09:00 |
| 09:00 | 10:00 | 10:00 |
| 10:00 | 11:00 | 11:00 |
| 11:00 | 12:00 | 12:00 |
| 12:00 | 13:00 | 13:00 |
| 13:00 | 14:00 | 14:00 |
| 14:00 | 15:00 | 15:00 |
| 15:00 | 16:00 | 16:00 |
| 16:00 | 17:00 | 17:00 |
| 17:00 | 18:00 | 18:00 |
| 18:00 | 19:00 | 19:00 |
| 19:00 | 20:00 | 20:00 |
| 20:00 | 21:00 | 21:00 |
| 21:00 | 22:00 | 22:00 |
| 22:00 | 23:00 | 23:00 |
| 23:00 | 00:00 | 00:00 |
Use the table by finding the UTC hour in the first column and reading across. Note the date change: a UTC time late in the evening is the next day in Casablanca when the offset is positive and large — 22:00 UTC is 23:00 the next day in Casablanca in January — and a UTC time early in the morning is the previous day in Casablanca when the offset is negative. The date matters as much as the time: a meeting at 02:00 UTC on Tuesday is a Monday evening meeting in the Americas.
When the offset changes
The offset changes twice a year. In 2026 the clocks go forward on Sunday, 22 March 2026 and back on Sunday, 20 September 2026; in 2027 there are no clock changes in 2027. The offset moves from UTC+00:00 to UTC+01:00 and back again. Morocco: DST was suspended during Ramadan in 2026 (out 2026-02-15, back 2026-03-22) and then ABOLISHED by Decree No. 2.26.530 — on 2026-09-20 Morocco returned to UTC+0 permanently and has no clock changes in 2027. The 2026 transitions list every change date. On the change days themselves, the hour from 02:00 to 03:00 does not exist in spring and happens twice in autumn, so do not schedule anything for 02:30 on those dates.
Casablanca time to UTC
The reverse conversion — Casablanca local time back to UTC — is the same table read backwards. Six examples, for January:
| Casablanca local | UTC (January) | UTC (July) |
|---|---|---|
| 00:00 | 23:00 | 23:00 |
| 06:00 | 05:00 | 05:00 |
| 09:00 | 08:00 | 08:00 |
| 12:00 | 11:00 | 11:00 |
| 15:00 | 14:00 | 14:00 |
| 21:00 | 20:00 | 20:00 |
The reverse table is the one to use when you are telling someone in another time zone when something happens in Casablanca. A flight that departs Casablanca at 09:00 local time departs at 08:00 UTC in January — and that UTC time is what the airline's systems, the air traffic controllers and the arrival airport all use. The flight time calculator works out the arrival time as well, including the date change.
Scheduling with UTC-based teams
Teams that work in UTC — software teams, aviation, shipping, scientific collaborations — schedule in UTC precisely because it never changes. If your team works in UTC, the time in Casablanca is UTC plus UTC+01:00 in January and UTC plus UTC+01:00 in July, and the only question is which of those applies on the meeting date. Put the UTC time in the invitation as well as the local time, and nobody has to convert.
The practical working hours for a UTC-based team and Casablanca are: 09:00–17:00 in Casablanca is 08:00–16:00 UTC in January and 08:00–16:00 UTC in July. A meeting at 14:00 UTC is 15:00 in Casablanca in January — inside the working day — and 15:00 in July. A meeting at 08:00 UTC is 09:00 in Casablanca in January, which is before the working day starts. The meeting planner finds the overlap for any two cities, and the meeting time finder finds it for a whole team.
