About Prague Time

Prague uses Central European Time (CET, UTC+1) in winter and Central European Summer Time (CEST, UTC+2) in summer, following EU-wide DST rules. The Czech Republic shares its timezone with Germany, Austria, Poland, Hungary, and most of continental Western Europe. Geographically near the centre of the European continent, Prague serves as a scheduling hub for Central European business coordination.

The Prague Stock Exchange (PSE) trades from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM CET/CEST. Prague has become a significant technology and business services hub, with major European and US companies establishing regional offices and shared service centres in the city. CET's alignment with Frankfurt and Berlin makes Prague-to-German-client calls require no timezone conversion, simplifying the administrative overhead for Czech-German business partnerships.

Prague is 1 hour ahead of London and 2 hours behind Moscow, placing it at a useful Central European midpoint. For US companies with Central European operations, Prague's CET is 6 hours ahead of New York in winter, creating a practical coordination window in early Prague afternoon that reaches New York's morning hours.
