About the time in 1st Arrondissement
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal 1st Arrondissement day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 06:44 and sunset at 07:01 local time, giving 12h 17m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.37, 2.48) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in 1st Arrondissement.
The zone identifier Africa/Porto-Novo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Porto-Novo keeps pointing at Porto-Novo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
