Good to know about the time in Chile
Mainland Chile, including Santiago, is currently on UTC−3 and changes its clocks in the opposite direction to Europe: it puts them forward in the southern spring, in September, and back in April. Santiago is 3 hours behind UTC in January and 4 hours behind in July.
The south does not follow this pattern: the Magallanes region, with Punta Arenas, has kept the same time all year round since 2017, and the Aysén region (Coyhaique) since 2025. Easter Island is 2 hours behind Santiago.
