About UTC+4

UTC+4 is 4 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time: when it is noon UTC, it is 4:00 PM at UTC+4.

9 zones keep UTC+4 all year, covering 10 countries or territories: United Arab Emirates, Oman, Reunion, Seychelles, French Southern Territories, Azerbaijan, Russia, Armenia, Georgia and Mauritius.

For a fixed offset in software, tzdata provides Etc/GMT-4; note the inverted sign of these POSIX-style names.

Abbreviations for UTC+4: GST (Gulf Standard Time).

UTC+4 and the sun

Across the large cities that keep UTC+4 all year, the clock runs 6 minutes ahead of mean solar time in Muscat (58.4°) and 73 minutes ahead of it in Batumi (41.6°). The offset’s own meridian is 60° east: the further a city lies from it, the further its clocks drift from the sun.

Neighbouring offsets: UTC+3:30 (Tehran) and UTC+4:30 (Kabul).
