Time in Mongolia

{{Short description|none}} {{Time zones of Mongolia}} '''Time in Mongolia''' is officially represented by the Mongolian Standard Time (UTC+08:00). However, the far western provinces of Khovd, Uvs and Bayan-Ölgii use UTC+07:00.

==Daylight saving time== Mongolia used daylight saving time in 1983–1998, 2001–2006<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.worldtimezone.com/dst_news/dst_news_mongolia01.html |title=DST News – Mongolia Daylight Saving Time news |date=8 February 2007 |publisher=WorldTimeZone.com |accessdate=29 January 2014}}</ref> and 2015–2016.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/mongolia-removes-dst-2017.html |title=Time Zone News – Mongolia Abolishes Daylight Saving Time |date=9 February 2017 |publisher=timeanddate.com |accessdate=9 February 2017}}</ref> However, Mongolia observes time almost exactly an hour ahead of its geographical time zone, with its border between UTC+7 and UTC+8 being almost exactly the longitudinal line of 97.5° E(which is really the designated border for between UTC+7 and UTC+6), so all of Mongolia could be said to be on permanent daylight/summer time.
