Magadan Time
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Magadan Time (Russian: Магада́нское вре́мя, Magadanskoye vremya) or MAGT, is a time zone in Russia, named after Magadan, the administrative center of Magadan Oblast. It is 11 hours ahead of UTC (UTC+11) and 8 hours ahead of Moscow Time (MSK+8).
Magadan Summer Time (MAGST) corresponds to UTC+12, but still 8 hours ahead of Moscow (MSD+8).
Most of Russia, including the Magadan Time Zone, uses decree time, which means it lies one hour ahead of standard time for the corresponding time zone.
