Good to know about the time in Colombia
Colombia is on UTC−5 all year round, with no daylight saving time: it is 6 hours behind France in winter and 7 hours behind in summer. Close to the equator, its days are of almost constant length. Time in Bogotá
The country has put its clocks forward only once, from May 1992 to early 1993, during a severe electricity shortage: Colombians called it “Gaviria time”, after the president of the day.
