Time difference between Bangkok and Berlin
Berlin is 5 hours behind Bangkok
Bangkok, Thailand is UTC+7 · Berlin, Germany is UTC+1 — on standard time
The gap is not the same all year
Every converter gives one number for this pair. That number is right for most of the year and wrong for part of it, because Bangkok does not change its clocks and Berlin goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October.
| Bangkok / Berlin clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| standard / summer | 5 hours behind | about 30 weeks |
| standard / standard | 6 hours behind | about 22 weeks |
Bangkok stays put all year while Berlin moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Berlin's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Bangkok's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.
