About the time in Karaj
The zone identifier Asia/Tehran is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Tehran keeps pointing at Tehran time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Karaj runs on Asia/Tehran, which puts the city UTC +3:30 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.
Around 1,448,075 people live in Karaj, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
