What time is it in Dolisie right now?
The time in Dolisie, Republic of the Congo is 2:14 pm, 14:14 on a 24 hour clock, on Saturday September 26, 2026. The reading above ticks from your own device against the Africa/Brazzaville rules, so it stays right through a clock change rather than drifting an hour out twice a year.
Dolisie sits at 4.20 degrees south and 12.67 degrees east, within eight degrees of the equator and 467 km from the equator. Its clock is set to a zone whose nominal meridian is 15.0 degrees east, and the city itself is 2.3 degrees west of that line. Those 2.3 degrees are worth 9 minutes 20 seconds of sun time, which is most of why solar noon here lands at 12:01 pm rather than on the stroke of twelve.
Dolisie time zone and UTC offset
The IANA zone for Dolisie, Republic of the Congo is Africa/Brazzaville. Right now it is running at UTC+1 and the abbreviation in force is UTC+1. Dolisie does not change its clocks at any point in the year. The offset stays at UTC+1 in January and in July alike, so no conversion involving Dolisie ever needs a seasonal footnote.

Best time to call Dolisie
Treating a working day as 9am to 6pm on both sides, this is the window the two cities genuinely share. Some of these pairs have no shared working hour at all, which is worth knowing before a meeting is proposed.

|---|---|---|
| Nkayi, Republic of the Congo | 2:14 pm | 69 km |

Moon phase over Dolisie tonight
The moon is a waning gibbous tonight, 15.4 days into its cycle and about 100% lit. The next full moon falls on September 26, 2026 at 5:48 pm Brazzaville time, and the next new moon on October 10, 2026 at 4:49 pm. Both are the same instant everywhere on Earth, printed here on the Dolisie clock, which is why the calendar date can differ from the one a reader further east or west sees.
When the clocks change in Dolisie
There is no clock change scheduled in Africa/Brazzaville within the next 400 days, so Dolisie stays at UTC+1 for the whole of that stretch.
That makes Dolisie an easy city to schedule against: a meeting fixed at a given hour here holds its relationship to UTC all year, and only the other end of the call can move.

The antipode of Dolisie
Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Dolisie, Republic of the Congo and you come out at 4.20 degrees north, 167.33 degrees west. That point is in the North Pacific Ocean. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Honolulu, Hawaii, 2,160 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 3:14 am on Saturday.
The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 4.20 degrees south becomes 4.20 degrees north, and 12.67 degrees east becomes 167.33 degrees west. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Dolisie is no exception. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC-11, roughly twelve hours from Dolisie, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.
Sunrise and sunset in Dolisie
Today the sun rises in Dolisie at 5:57 am and sets at 6:04 pm, giving 12 hours 7 minutes of daylight. The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Dolisie.
Sun and moon in Dolisie today
The sun is up in Dolisie for 12 hours 7 minutes today, from 5:57 am to 6:04 pm. The moon sets in Dolisie at 5:33 am and comes up again at 5:58 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 26, 2026. The moon is full, or as near to it as makes no difference, and the whole of the face turned towards us is lit.
| Sun | Time in Dolisie |
|---|---|
| Astronomical dawn | 4:48 am |
| Nautical dawn | 5:12 am |
| Civil dawn | 5:36 am |
| Sunrise | 5:57 am |
| Solar noon | 12:01 pm |
| Sunset | 6:04 pm |
| Civil dusk | 6:25 pm |
| Nautical dusk | 6:49 pm |
| Astronomical dusk | 7:13 pm |
Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.
| Light band | Time in Dolisie | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Morning blue hour | 5:36 am to 5:44 am | 0h 08m |
| Morning golden hour | 5:44 am to 6:24 am | 0h 40m |
| Evening golden hour | 5:37 pm to 6:17 pm | 0h 40m |
| Evening blue hour | 6:17 pm to 6:25 pm | 0h 08m |
Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.
| Moon | Reading in Dolisie |
|---|---|
| Moonrise | 5:58 pm |
| Moonset | 5:33 am |
| Phase | full moon, waxing |
| Illumination | 100% of the disc lit |
| Moon age | 15.3 days since the new moon |
| Distance | 380,400 km |
Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

No hour on Saturday, September 26, 2026 is inside 9 to 5 in all 5 places, so nothing is highlighted as a shared working hour. Los Angeles and Singapore are 15 hours apart, which is more than the eight hour working day leaves room for. The closest is 3 of 5: from 9:00 am in Dolisie it is working hours in Dolisie, Delhi and Singapore, but outside them in Los Angeles and New York. A meeting across this set has to be early or late for somebody.
Prayer times in Dolisie
Seven days from September 26, 2026, computed for Dolisie, Republic of the Congo at 4.20 degrees south, 12.67 degrees east, on the clock of Africa/Brazzaville. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Dolisie, Republic of the Congo, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.
Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.
Qibla direction from Dolisie
From Dolisie, Republic of the Congo the qibla is 45.0 degrees on a true compass, which is northeast, or 45.0 degrees north of due east. The Kaaba is 4,107 km away, 2,552 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.
That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Dolisie, Republic of the Congo to 21.4225 degrees north, 39.8262 degrees east, which is the Kaaba inside Masjid al-Haram.
The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north. A magnetic compass points at the magnetic pole, and the difference between the two can be anything from nothing to more than twenty degrees depending where you are, so check your compass reading against magnetic declination for Dolisie, Republic of the Congo before you use it. A phone compass set to true north, or the shadow of a vertical stick at local solar noon, avoids the problem entirely.
Put a Dolisie clock on your site
A live clock showing the current time in Dolisie, Republic of the Congo, ready to paste into any page that accepts HTML. It reads Africa/Brazzaville from the time zone database, so it stays right when Dolisie changes its clocks, and it shows UTC+1 to every visitor wherever they are reading from. It is a plain iframe: no account, no script to install, nothing to pay.
The box needs 183 pixels of height for these settings, which is what the code above sets, and the numbers show at full size from 305 pixels of width up. Narrower than that they scale down rather than wrapping, and turning a line off makes the box shorter. The code updates with either.
