About the time in Brussels
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Brussels day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 07:00–15:00 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 06:38 and sunset at 08:53 local time, giving 14h 14m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (50.85, 4.35) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Brussels.
Brussels is on daylight saving time at the moment, which is why the offset reads UTC +2 instead of its winter value. Clocks go back on 25 October 2026, and anything scheduled across that date shifts by an hour.
