Local time in Tehran (Asia/Tehran), daylight saving time included, rounded to the minute, for an open horizon at sea level.

Earliest sunset, latest sunrise

The shortest day in Tehran is December 22, but the earliest sunset comes on December 5, at 4:51 PM, and the latest sunrise on January 7, at 7:15 AM. This shift comes from the equation of time: around the solstices, solar noon drifts by up to half a minute a day on the clock, so sunrise and sunset do not move symmetrically.

Solar noon and time zone

Tehran lies at 35.69° north and 51.39° east. Its standard time, UTC+3:30, is set on the 52.5° east meridian, so the sun reaches its highest point in Tehran about 4 minutes later than on that meridian. Over the year, solar noon falls between 11:48 AM (November 2) and 12:19 PM (February 11) on the clock.

Daylight saving time

Tehran does not change its clocks (UTC+3:30 all year), so sunrise and sunset move only with the seasons: sunrise by 2 h 27 min and sunset by 2 h 34 min over the year.

Height of the sun and twilight

At solar noon the sun climbs to 77.7° above the horizon on June 21, and only 30.9° on December 22. Civil twilight, from first light to sunrise, lasts about 25 minutes at the March equinox and 30 minutes in late June. The day length changes fastest around March 19: 2 min 16 s more each day.

The sky gets fully dark every night of the year: even in midsummer, the sun sinks more than 18° below the horizon.
