How Jakarta Keeps Time

Jakarta keeps WIB, UTC+7. The live clock normally synchronizes to the site time source and then applies the IANA rules for Jakarta; until synchronization succeeds, it uses the device clock as a fallback. Daylight-saving changes are applied only where that zone actually observes them.

Jakarta runs on the Asia/Jakarta zone in the IANA time zone database, which is UTC+7 right now. There is no daylight saving here, so that offset holds all year and the difference to other places only changes when they move their own clocks.

The sun rises in Jakarta at 5:28 am today and sets at 5:45 pm — 12 hours 17 minutes of daylight, with solar noon at 11:36 am. Those times come from the city’s coordinates (-6.21, 106.85), so they shift a little every day of the year.

On the two solstices, Jakarta has about 11 hours 46 minutes of daylight in June and 12 hours 29 minutes in December. The difference is about 43 minutes, which shows how strongly the local daylight cycle changes through the year.

WIB is one of several zones in Indonesia, so a time quoted for the country as a whole is not necessarily the time here. Check the city rather than the country when it matters.

Questions People Ask

Is Jakarta the time everywhere in Indonesia?

No. Indonesia currently has 3 distinct civil UTC offsets represented in the directory, so the country page separates the regions.
