Yakutsk Time

Short description: Time zone in Russia (UTC+9)

Yakutsk Time (YAKT) is a time zone in Russia which is nine hours ahead of UTC, and six hours ahead of Moscow Time (MSK).[1]

The time zone covers Sakha Republic (western part), Amur Oblast and Zabaykalsky Krai.[1]

On 27 March 2011, Russia moved to year-round daylight saving time. Instead of switching between 00 in winter and 00 in summer, Yakutsk Time became fixed at 00 until 2014, when it was reset back to 00 year-round.[2]
