What Time is it in Zimbabwe?

Zimbabwe operates on Central Africa Time (CAT), which is 2 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC+2). The country does not observe daylight saving time, so the offset remains constant throughout the year.

All of Zimbabwe follows the same timezone. Major cities including Harare, Bulawayo, Chitungwiza, and Mutare all observe CAT. Harare, the capital and largest city, is located in the northeast of the country and serves as the main commercial and political center.

Fun Fact
