What time is it in Serbia right now? 🇷🇸

It is 4:34 pm in Belgrade right now, Friday, September 25, 2026. Serbia runs on CEST at UTC+2. Every reading on this page is computed from the IANA time zone database at the moment you loaded it, and the clocks above and below tick on from there.

Time in Serbia now

Serbia keeps a single time zone, Europe/Belgrade, so there is one answer to the question and it is the same in every town: 4:34 pm. The offset is UTC+2, and it is the summer one at the moment.

The offset from UTC in Belgrade is UTC+2, which is 2 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time. Nine in the morning in Belgrade is 7:00 am UTC.

Serbia time zone in full

Each row is a zone identifier from the IANA database, its reading at this instant, its offset from UTC and whether it is currently on standard or summer time. All of them agree today, which is the usual case for Serbia.

Does Serbia have daylight saving time?

Serbia does observe daylight saving, in every zone it has. The next change is on October 25, 2026, when the clocks go back and UTC+2 becomes UTC+1. Until then the offset here is UTC+2.

Because the clocks move, the gap between Serbia and anywhere that does not move its own is not a constant. It shifts by an hour twice a year, and a difference memorised in one season is wrong in the other. That is the single most common source of a missed call into Serbia.

Where Serbia is on the map

The marker is on Belgrade, the point every sun reading and every call window on this page is worked out from.

Time difference between Belgrade and major cities

Worked out at this instant rather than from a stored table, so daylight saving on either side is already in it.

Best time to call Serbia

A nine to five working day in Belgrade against a nine to five day elsewhere. The overlap column is the stretch when both desks are open, given on each side's own clock.

Daylight hours in Belgrade today

In Belgrade the sun rose at 6:29 am today and sets at 6:30 pm, giving 12 hours 2 minutes of daylight. The capital is losing 3 minutes 5 seconds of daylight a day at the moment, and the sun stands highest at 12:30 pm.

Solar noon in Belgrade is 12:30 pm, which is 30 minutes after clock noon. That gap is the capital sitting at 20.45 degrees east while its clock is set to Europe/Belgrade, plus the equation of time, which today runs 8.3 minutes ahead of mean time, plus an hour of daylight saving for part of the year.

Moon phase over Belgrade tonight

The moon is full moon tonight, 14.5 days into the current lunation, with roughly 100 percent of the disc lit. The next full moon falls on September 26, 2026 as Serbia reads the date, at 6:48 pm local. The moon phase page has the full cycle.

Every IANA time zone in Serbia

These are the identifiers a computer uses. A program that stores Europe/Belgrade rather than UTC+2 keeps working through every future rule change, which is the whole reason the database is keyed this way.

Convert Serbia time to another zone

The converter pages below take CEST against the zones people most often measure it from. Each one carries a full conversion table rather than a single answer.

Information about Serbia

Serbia sits in Europe, carries the ISO country code RS and a population of about 6,660,000. Its capital Belgrade is at 44.79 degrees north, 20.45 degrees east, which is the coordinate every sunrise and solar noon on this page is computed from.

Upcoming dates in Serbia

Read on Serbia's own clock, so the day counts below start from September 25 and not from a UTC date. The list is the internationally observed calendar plus the dates common across Europe, along with this country's own clock changes and the next solstices and equinoxes. National days set by a country's own statute are not included, because this site carries no statute table and a guessed one would be worse than an honest gap.

Sun and moon in Belgrade today

The sun is up in Belgrade for 12 hours 2 minutes today, from 6:29 am to 6:30 pm. The moon sets in Belgrade at 4:53 am and comes up again at 5:50 pm. The next phase is the full moon on September 26, 2026. It is 98% lit at the moment, a full moon, filling out by about 2.9 percentage points a day.

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.

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.

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.

Prayer times in Belgrade

Seven days from September 25, 2026, computed for Belgrade at 44.79 degrees north, 20.45 degrees east, on the clock of Europe/Belgrade. 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 Belgrade, 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 Belgrade

From Belgrade the qibla is 139.3 degrees on a true compass, which is southeast, or 40.7 degrees west of due south. The Kaaba is 3,145 km away, 1,955 miles, measured over the surface of the Earth.

That figure is the initial bearing of the great circle from Belgrade 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 Belgrade 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.
