Time difference between Moscow and Stockholm

Stockholm is 1 hour behind Moscow

Moscow, Russia is UTC+3 · 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 Moscow does not change its clocks and Stockholm goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October.

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