Quizfrage

How many hours time shift does Curacao have?

Antwort

In Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) it is UTC-4 for Curacao.

To give you an idea of what this means: In summer time, we in Germany are UTC+2, that is 6 hours ahead of Curacao. In winter time UTC+1 it is 5 hours.

UTC and GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), which you are probably more familiar with, are identical in terms of calculating the time difference, but UTC has replaced GMT. Both refer to the prime meridian, which passes through the London district of Greenwich.
