Time change: when exactly should the time change?

Time change when exactly should the time change

France is switching to winter time this weekend. But when should you change the time without making a mistake? The transition always takes place overnight from Saturday to Sunday.

When exactly do we change time? This weekend, it’s time change in France. A course often difficult to pass for the most fragile and the most dizzy among us. To be sure not to be mistaken, two important things must be remembered. First, the time change works in two stages during the year: in the spring, we advance our watches by one hour to switch to summer time, while in the fall, we delay them to switch to winter time. Traditionally, the winter time change takes place on the last weekend of October, which is Sunday, October 30, 2022 for this year.

This is what brings us to the second key information: when and how to change the time exactly? The time change always takes place on a Sunday and the official time change always takes place at 3 am. Thus, this Sunday morning, at 3 o’clock, it will be 2 o’clock. Of course, in practice, individuals can change time on Saturday evening before sleeping or on Sunday morning when waking up.
