Gulf Standard Time

Gulf Standard Time (GST) is a time zone used in the Arabian Peninsula’s countries, including Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. GST is three hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and is abbreviated as UTC+03:00.

GST is used by the countries of the Arabian Peninsula, which are located in western Asia. These countries are known for their rich cultural history, diverse landscapes, and vibrant cities.

The Gulf Standard Time countries are Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. These countries are located on the Arabian Peninsula and are known for their oil reserves, desert climates, and cultural traditions.

There are no other countries that use Gulf Standard Time. The time zone used in the surrounding countries is based on the capital cities’ longitude rather than the Arabian Peninsula’s longitude. For example, the time zone used in Iran is based on the longitude of Tehran, while the time zone used in Iraq is based on the longitude of Baghdad.
