[[UTCTime zone {{{1}}} is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.|Time zone {{{1}}} is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.]]

Template documentationviewedithistorypurge

This template maps time zones to the linked UTC offset of their standard time (non-DST), from tz database. The output text is formatted in "+HH:mm" or "−HH:mm", linked to a UTC offset article. The offsets are stored in {{Time zone/utc offset}}.

Usage

{{Time zone/utc offset link}} has one required positional parameter for timezone name from tz database. For example:

• {{Time zone/utc offset link|America/New_York}} → −05:00
• {{Time zone/utc offset link|Europe/Berlin}} → +01:00
• {{Time zone/utc offset link|Australia/Sydney}} → +10:00

For invalid timezone names:

• {{Time zone/utc offset link}} → [[UTCTime zone {{{1}}} is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.|Time zone {{{1}}} is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.]]
• {{Time zone/utc offset link|}} → [[UTCTime zone is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.|Time zone is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.]]
• {{Time zone/utc offset link|No such TZ name}} → [[UTCTime zone No such TZ name is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.|Time zone No such TZ name is not in {{Tz/utc offset}}.]]

Sub templates store data from the tz database and some related information. These examples are accurate as of version 2026c of the database.

Code example	Produces	Description
{{Time zone/version|IncludeLink}}	[https://data.iana.org/time-zones/releases/tzdata2026c.tar.gz 2026c] → 2026c	Produces the version number of the tz database. Update this template when updating those below with data from a new release. Add a parameter (value doesn't matter) to include a link to the IANA FTP site.
{{Time zone/country code|Asia/Urumqi}}	CN	Maps TZ to country code from zone.tab
{{Time zone/iso 3166-1 link|Asia/Urumqi}}	[[ISO 3166-1:CN|CN]] → CN	Maps TZ to linked country code from zone.tab
{{Time zone/coordinates|Asia/Urumqi}}	+4348+08735	Maps TZ to coordinates in original format from zone.tab
{{Time zone/comments|Asia/Urumqi}}	Xinjiang Time	Maps TZ to comments from zone.tab
{{Time zone/rulefile|Asia/Urumqi}}	asia	Maps TZ to linked continent file that defines the zone (or link) and DST rules.
{{Time zone/utc offset|Europe/Amsterdam}}	+01:00	Maps TZ to normal (non-DST) UTC offset
{{Time zone/utc offset link|Europe/Amsterdam}}	[[UTC+01:00|+01:00]] → +01:00	Maps TZ to linked normal (non-DST) UTC offset
{{Time zone/utc zone|Europe/Amsterdam}}	UTC+01:00	Maps TZ to normal (non-DST) UTC offset with prefix
{{Time zone/utc dst offset|Europe/Amsterdam}}	+02:00	Maps TZ to DST UTC offset
{{Time zone/utc dst offset link|Europe/Amsterdam}}	[[UTC+02:00|+02:00]] → +02:00	Maps TZ to linked DST UTC offset
{{Time zone/zone.tab cols wikitable|Antarctica/South_Pole}}	| [[ISO 3166-1:AQ|AQ]] || || [[Antarctica/South_Pole]] ||	Maps TZ to 4 elements as a wikitable row – country code, coordinates, zone name, and comments
{{Time zone/database header|dst=no}}	! scope="col" | [[ISO 3166 2-character country code|<abbr title="Country code">c.c.</abbr>]] ! scope="col" | Coordinates ! scope="col" | [[List of tz database time zones|Timezone name]] ! scope="col" | Comments ! scope="col" colspan="2" | [[UTC offset]]	A 6-column table header for the templates below. Optionally, the two UTC offset columns can be merged by |dst=no, designed for {{Time zone/zone.tab cols wiki6}}.
{{Time zone/zone.tab cols linked|Antarctica/South_Pole}}	| [[ISO 3166-1:AQ|AQ]] | | Antarctica/South_Pole | | [[UTC+12:00|+12:00]] | [[UTC+13:00|+13:00]]	Similar to {{Time zone/zone.tab cols wikitable}}, but adds two more lines to the output, containing the linked normal (non-DST) and DST UTC offsets
{{Time zone/zone.tab cols unlinked|Antarctica/South_Pole}}	| AQ | | Antarctica/South_Pole | | +12:00 | +13:00	Same as {{Time zone/zone.tab cols unlinked}}, but with no links
{{Time zone/zone.tab cols wiki6|Antarctica/South_Pole}}	| [[ISO 3166-1:AQ|AQ]] | | <div style="text-indent: -1.6em; margin-left: 1.6em;">Antarctica<wbr />/South_Pole</div> | | data-sort-value="43200" | [[UTC+12:00|+12:00]] | data-sort-value="46800" | [[UTC+13:00|+13:00]]	A version of {{Time zone/zone.tab cols linked}} designed for: sortable tables, by including sort keys; and tables of TZs with and without DST, by allowing different display behaviours for the DST column. Note: neither {{Time zone/zone.tab cols wiki6}} nor {{Time zone/zone.tab cols linked}} can currently be used for the full table in List of tz database time zones because of performance limitations in processing such a long table. They can, however, be used for a small number of rows in individual area articles.
