About time in Dhaka
Use this Dhaka clock for a simple live display of Bangladesh time.
Dhaka uses Bangladesh Standard Time (UTC+6) throughout the year. This page formats the live display with the IANA timezone Asia/Dhaka.

Use it for regional coordination with Delhi, Bangkok, and Singapore. Check the live date as well as the hour when locations may be on different calendar days.
Working across timezones
Dhaka’s normal working day aligns closely with Delhi, Bangkok, and Singapore. Europe joins during the Bangladeshi afternoon, while North American coordination usually needs an early or late arrangement. Include the date for calls with the Americas because Dhaka may already be on the following day.
Dhaka remains on UTC+6 year-round. The half-hour difference from India stays stable, but differences from daylight-saving locations in Europe, North America, and Australia can change by an hour during their seasonal transitions.
Dhaka: River Traditions and Relentless Creativity
Dhaka is a dense, energetic capital shaped by the rivers and fertile delta surrounding it. Rickshaws, ferries, markets, university campuses, textile workshops, food stalls, and growing business districts create a city of constant movement. Bengali language, literature, music, festivals, and food give daily life a strong cultural identity. Dhaka is also central to Bangladesh’s government, manufacturing, technology, education, and trade. The pace can feel overwhelming, yet conversations over tea, shaded courtyards, and life beside the Buriganga reveal a more personal side of the city.
Business-hours examples are orientation for ordinary weekday coordination, not a promise that a person, office, market, school, or public service will be available. Local holidays, flexible schedules, religious observances, remote-work policies, and individual routines can all change the useful overlap, so confirm the participants’ availability before fixing an important event.
Timezone rules are maintained outside this site and can change through government decisions or browser timezone-data updates.
