How the gap works

The gap is not constant. Because Madrid changes its clocks for daylight saving time and Bangkok does not, the difference becomes 6 hours for part of the year. The live section above shows the exact gap right now and when it next changes.

  • Madrid (Spain) is in the Europe/Madrid time zone: UTC+1 (CET) or UTC+2 (CEST).
  • Bangkok (Thailand) is in the Asia/Bangkok time zone: UTC+7.
