Time difference between Singapore and Amsterdam
Amsterdam is 6 hours behind Singapore
Singapore, Singapore is UTC+8 · Amsterdam, the Netherlands 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 Singapore does not change its clocks and Amsterdam goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October.
| Singapore / Amsterdam clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| standard / summer | 6 hours behind | about 30 weeks |
| standard / standard | 7 hours behind | about 22 weeks |
Singapore stays put all year while Amsterdam moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Amsterdam's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Singapore's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.
