If you’re outside the U.S.

  • Rules vary by country: for example, most of Europe ended daylight saving time in 2025 on October 26 at 3:00 a.m. local time, switching from summer time back to standard time.
  • To know the exact end date for your location, you would need to check your country or region’s time-change rules, since they do not all match the U.S. system.

  • ā€œFall backā€ = clocks move one hour back in late October or early November (end of daylight saving time), giving most people one extra hour of sleep.
