BRT time now (Brasília Time)

What BRT means

BRT stands for Brasília Time, UTC−3. It is used in most of Brazil, including São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Brasília.

tzdata, the database behind phones and computers, does not use the letters BRT: it writes UTC−3 for this time. BRT is the customary or CLDR name, so software may show “UTC−3” or “GMT−3” instead.

Where and when BRT is used

1 zone uses BRT all year. Computed from tzdata under the current rules (tzdata writes UTC−3; the list follows the CLDR name).

BRT converted to other zones

Every column is a fixed offset, so this table is valid on any date. Remember that the regions behind some columns switch to summer time (EST to EDT, CET to CEST, GMT to BST); the clock in those cities is then an hour later than the column.
