Current Time in Wales
Wales is on UK time with no separate zone or clock change. It follows GMT from late October to late March and BST in between, the same as England.
Time in Wales
Time and clock changes are reserved to the UK Government, so the Senedd cannot set a different time for Wales.
West Wales is among the westernmost parts of Great Britain, so on a winter evening the sun sets roughly 15 to 20 minutes later in Pembrokeshire than in London by solar time, even though clock time is identical.
