The boundaries on this map show a mix of both de facto and de jure situations. This is just one of several different views on the subject (see COM:NPOV).It may be preferable to represent a consistent approach on this map, unless such a mixing is specifically desired for a particular use case.

Pale colours: Standard time observed all year Dark colours: Summer time observed Europe spans seven primary time zones (from UTC−01:00 to UTC+05:00), excluding summer time offsets (five of them can be seen on the map, with one further-western zone containing the Azores, and one further-eastern zone spanning the Ural regions of Russia and European part of Kazakhstan).
Standard Time (SDT) and Daylight Saving Time (DST) offsets from UTC in hours and minutes. For zones in which Daylight Saving is not observed, the DST offset shown in this table is a simple duplication of the SDT offset. The UTC offsets are based on the current or upcoming database rules.
Further-eastern European Time / Moscow Time / Turkey Time (UTC+3) Light colours indicate where standard time is observed all year; dark colours indicate where a summer time (also known as "daylight saving time" or "DST") is observed.
Time zones of the world. A time zone is an area which observes a uniform standard time for legal, commercial and social purposes. Time zones tend to follow the boundaries between countries and their subdivisions instead of strictly following longitude, because it is convenient for areas in frequent communication to keep the same time.
Worldwide time zones at present. Standard time is the synchronization of clocks within a geographical region to a single time standard, rather than a local mean time standard. Generally, standard time agrees with the local mean time at some meridian that passes through the region, often near the centre of the region.
