Yangon is a city in Myanmar, with a population of about 4,477,638. It uses the Myanmar (Burma) Time time zone (IANA identifier Asia/Yangon).

Yangon does not observe daylight saving time, so the clock stays on UTC+6:30 all year round. The time difference with places that do change their clocks — such as most of Europe and North America — therefore shifts by one hour twice a year.

Note that Yangon uses a non-whole-hour offset: local time differs from UTC by 6 hours and 30 minutes.

Other cities on the same clock include Nay Pyi Taw.

Because Yangon lies at 16.81° N, 96.16° E, the length of the day changes only slightly through the year: around the June solstice there are about 13 h 08 min of daylight, and around the December solstice about 11 h 08 min.
