Time in Vatican City

Vatican City, a sovereign city-state that is enclaved within Rome, Italy, uses the same time zone as Italy.

Vatican City, alternates between Central European Time (, , UTC+01:00) and Central European Summer Time (, , UTC+02:00), because it follows the European Summer Time annual Daylight saving time ( ) procedure. As such Italy begins observing Central European Summer Time at 02:00 CET on the last Sunday in March and switches back to Central European Time on the last Sunday of October since 1996.
