Time difference between Lagos and Stockholm

Stockholm is 1 hour ahead of Lagos

Lagos, Nigeria is UTC+1 · Stockholm, Sweden 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 Lagos does not change its clocks and Stockholm goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October.

Lagos stays put all year while Stockholm moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Stockholm's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Lagos's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.

About Lagos and Stockholm

Nigeria is UTC+1 with no daylight saving. It matches Central European Time in winter and falls an hour behind in summer, so a standing Lagos–Berlin meeting moves twice a year entirely at the European end.

Sweden is on Central European Time and far enough north that the offset is the least of the scheduling problem: midsummer daylight runs past midnight in the north of the country and December sun barely clears the horizon.
