Chile's Daylight Saving Time Ends
Time Set Back One Hour
Clocks Changed at 00:00 AM on Sunday, April 7
Chile transitioned to standard time at the start of Sunday, April 7, 2023. The change, which occurred at 00:00 AM local time, set clocks back by one hour.
The time change affects all of Chile's mainland regions, including the capital, Santiago. Easter Island, however, operates on a different time zone and is not affected by the change.
The daylight saving period typically runs from September to March in Chile. During this period, clocks are set forward one hour, resulting in more daylight hours in the evenings.
The transition to standard time marks the end of the summer season in Chile and signals the approach of autumn. It also means that sunrise and sunset times will occur earlier in the day.
For more information on the time change and its implications, please consult reliable sources such as the Chilean Meteorological Service (Dirección Meteorológica de Chile) or your local government.
