Estonia uses Eastern European Time (EET) (UTC+02:00) during winter, and Eastern European Summer Time (EEST) (UTC+03:00) during summer. Estonia has observed daylight saving time since 1981. However, it was not used from 1989 to 1996[ citation needed ] and 2000 to 2002. [1]

Before autumn 1940, Eastern European Time was used in Estonia. After incorporation into the Soviet Union, Moscow Time was imposed. Moscow Time was used until 26 March 1989. [1]
