Morocco will return to GMT+1 on Sunday, March 22, 2026, by moving clocks forward 60 minutes at 0200, in line with the country’s legal time decree, the Ministry of Digital Transition and Administration Reform said.
The kingdom switched to GMT on Sunday, Feb. 15, at 0300 for Ramadan, under a government order issued on Jan. 29, 2026.
Morocco has applied a system since 2018 under which GMT+1 remains the legal time for most of the year, with a temporary return to GMT during the fasting month.
The seasonal change has continued to draw criticism online from people who say GMT+1 disrupts daily routines, sleep and health.
