Current Time in Venezuela
Time in Venezuela
Shown above is the current time across Venezuela, alongside the time zone Venezuela keeps and the live local time in its main cities.
The whole of Venezuela runs on a single time, Caracas time (UTC-4) — so every city listed on this page reads exactly the same clock.
Venezuela doesn't observe daylight saving at all — its offset from UTC stays fixed the entire year, so if the gap to another country ever changes, it's that other country moving its own clocks, not this one.

Is the time shown for Venezuela calculated or researched?
Calculated. Every time, offset and daylight-saving date on this page comes from the IANA time zone database applied to Venezuela's zone rules, not from a person checking a clock there. That makes the technical data reliable and current, but it means this page does not claim any local knowledge beyond it — for business hours, public holidays or working weeks, use a local or official source. The methodology page sets out exactly what is computed and from what.
What IANA time zone identifier does Venezuela use?
America/Caracas, which is the identifier software and calendar apps actually store internally to track the zone.
What time does the sun rise and set across Venezuela?
It varies city by city, since sunrise follows real coordinates rather than the time zone. The sunrise page for Venezuela lists today's exact times for every city.
