About the time in Bantè
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.
Sunrise today lands at 06:45 and sunset at 07:06 local time, giving 12h 21m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (8.42, 1.88) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Bantè.
Clocks in Bantè stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +1 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Benin.
