About the time in Almaty
The zone identifier Asia/Almaty is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Almaty keeps pointing at Almaty time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Almaty runs on Asia/Almaty, which puts the city UTC +5 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 05:03 and sunset at 06:47 local time, giving 13h 44m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (43.25, 76.91) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Almaty.
