About Dubai
Dubai is the commercial heart of the United Arab Emirates, known for its skyline, its huge international airport and its role as a trading, aviation and tourism hub linking Europe, Africa and Asia. Many people check the time here to catch flight connections, arrange calls with regional offices or plan holidays.
Dubai uses Gulf Standard Time, UTC+4, and the clocks never change, so there is no daylight saving to keep track of. The same time applies across the whole of the UAE and in neighbouring Oman. Government offices work Monday to Friday, with a shorter Friday, which makes overlap with European business hours fairly easy in the mornings.
