What is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)?

Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the time at the Prime Meridian — longitude 0° — which passes through the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London. It serves as the baseline for all other time zones worldwide and is equivalent to UTC+0.

GMT is observed year-round in countries that do not use Daylight Saving Time. The United Kingdom uses GMT in winter, switching to British Summer Time (BST, UTC+1) between late March and late October.
