Although famously observed in North America and parts of Europe, daylight saving time (DST) isn’t universally practiced. Many regions, such as most of Asia and Africa, maintain a consistent clock year-round. Countries sometimes opt out of DST or adjust its start and end dates for economic, political, or energy-saving reasons. These changing policies create frequent confusion for travelers and global businesses. Studying DST around the world highlights the interplay between local customs, governmental decisions, and efforts to harmonize with international markets.
