Time in Nauru

Last updated

Time in Nauru is given by Nauru Time (NRT; UTC+12:00), [1] also known infrequently as "Nauru Alternate Time". Nauru does not have an associated daylight saving time. [2]

UTC+12:00 is not officially the legal time, however, due to the peculiar way the legislative Nauru Standard Time Act 1978 is worded, which proposed adopting either "Nauru Standard Time" as UTC+11:00, or "Nauru Alternate Time" as UTC+12:00. [3] The latter time is commonly used however. [4]
