Berlin’s 2025 Daylight Saving Time Shift: What You Need to Know
Berlin, like the rest of Germany, follows the annual switch between standard and daylight saving time. Clocks move forward in March and back again in October. The changes remain in place under long-standing regulations, though no recent decisions by specific authorities have been documented.
The city operates on Central European Time (CET) for most of the year. Each spring, the shift to daylight saving time (DST) occurs on the last Sunday in March. At 2:00 AM, clocks jump forward to 3:00 AM, pushing Berlin one hour ahead of CET.
Berlin’s timekeeping follows a predictable pattern. The March change adds an extra hour of evening light, while October’s change restores standard time. The routine persists without recent policy updates or identified decision-makers.
