Krasnoyarsk Time (KRAT) operates at UTC+7 year-round and is used across several Siberian regions of Russia, including Krasnoyarsk Krai, Novosibirsk Oblast, and Altai Krai. KRAT does not observe daylight saving time and is sometimes referred to as "Siberian Time." It provides a stable and unified time reference for managing business, administration, and community life throughout these territories.
Importance and Global Use of KRAT
Krasnoyarsk Time (KRAT) is vital for coordinating administration, transportation, industry, and education throughout key Siberian regions. Its stable UTC+7 offset helps synchronize public services and business operations in areas known for energy production, mining, and heavy industry, supporting the economic backbone of this part of Russia.
Internationally, KRAT ensures consistent timing for trade, logistics, and communication between European Russia, Siberia, and neighboring Asian countries. Its alignment with regional partners in the Asia-Pacific supports cross-border cooperation and maintains the reliable flow of goods and services through critical infrastructure such as the Trans-Siberian Railway.
