Time zone and UTC offset in Nuuk
Nuuk follows the America/Nuuk time zone (this zone has no widely used letter abbreviation). Right now its offset from Coordinated Universal Time is UTC-1.
Daylight saving time is in effect at the moment, which means local clocks run ahead of standard time. The next change comes on Sunday, October 25, 2026 at 00:00: clocks go back 1 hour, so at 00:00 the clock goes back to 23:00 and the offset becomes UTC-2. From that day the difference from Brasília is 1 hour ahead. The change after that is on Saturday, March 27, 2027 at 23:00.
Time difference between Brasília and Nuuk
To convert, take Brasília time and add 2 hours; when the sum passes midnight, the date in Nuuk is already the next day. The table uses today's offsets.
Going the other way, local noon in Nuuk is 10:00 in Brasília, and local midnight is 22:00 (previous day) in Brasília. Because Nuuk is ahead, its calendar date is one day later than in Brasília from 22:00 until midnight Brasília time. Keep this in mind for deadlines, flights and anything scheduled around the start or end of a day.
