Clock changes in Oman.
Oman does not change its clocks for summer, so the time difference with countries that do shifts twice a year.
Countries in Europe and North America move their clocks in spring and autumn. Their difference from Muscat therefore changes by an hour twice a year, while the clock in Muscat stays where it is.
Countries on the same time as Muscat.
These countries keep the same standard offset from Coordinated Universal Time, UTC+4, so their clocks read the same for most of the year. See every country on the countries page.
