Chile's Daylight Saving Time Change: Transition to Standard Time
New Time Shift to Implement Standard Time
Chile is set to undergo a time change on Sunday, April 6, 2024, transitioning from Daylight Saving Time (DST) to Standard Time. This change aligns with the country's legislation, Decree 224, which mandates the shift between Standard Time and DST.
Standard Time Period
Standard Time in Chile will commence on Saturday, April 6, at 00:00 AM. At this point, clocks should be adjusted back by one hour.
Territorial Variations
It's important to note that the time change applies differently in Chile's Insular Occidental region, which includes Easter Island (Rapa Nui). The time shift in this territory will be adjusted by 45 minutes instead of one hour.
Previous Time Change
Chile previously implemented a time change on September 1, 2023, transitioning to DST. This change marked a shift towards longer daylight hours during the spring and summer months.
Implications and Adjustments
The time change may have implications for daily routines and schedules. Individuals should adjust their clocks accordingly and make necessary preparations to minimize any potential disruptions.
