The clock: Naypyidaw keeps UTC+6:30. The move was announced with almost no notice, and ministries were given days to relocate.
Naypyidaw lies at 96.1°E. Its time zone, UTC+6:30, is built around the 97.5°E meridian. The 1.4° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 6 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:06 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+6:30 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 13h 20m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 10h 56m. The swing between them is 2h 23m. Inside the tropics the day length stays within a narrow band all year.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Naypyidaw the sun comes up earliest on 7 June at 05:26, while the latest sunset waits until 7 July at 18:49. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Naypyidaw that civil twilight runs about 22 minutes at the equinox.
Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
