Yakutsk Time (YAKT) is a time zone in Russia which is nine hours ahead of GMT, and six hours ahead of Moscow Time (MSK).[1] The time zone is also known as Asia/Yakutsk in the tz datbase.[2]
The time zone covers Sakha Republic (western part), Amur Oblast and Zabaykalsky Krai.[1]
On 27 March 2011, Russia moved to year-round daylight saving time. Instead of switching between UTC+09:00 in winter and UTC+10:00 in summer, Yakutsk Time became fixed at UTC+10:00 until 2014, when it was reset back to UTC+09:00 year-round.[3]
