UTC Offset: UTC +13 |
Tokelau Time (TKT) operates at UTC+13 hours year-round, with no daylight saving time changes. Sometimes referred to simply as "Tokelau Standard Time," TKT is the official time zone of Tokelau, a dependent territory of New Zealand in the South Pacific, providing a consistent and reliable time reference across its three atolls.
Importance and Global Use of TKT
TKT is crucial for coordinating local government services, community activities, and transportation within Tokelau. Its stable UTC+13 offset helps maintain smooth scheduling for education, health care, and essential supplies, which is especially important for a remote island group with limited external connections.
Internationally, Tokelau Time supports alignment with Pacific neighbors and international partners. The consistent time zone makes it easier to coordinate travel, trade, and diplomatic relations, strengthening Tokelau's ties within the Pacific region and its global partnerships.
