About the time in Maputo
Sunrise today lands at 06:13 and sunset at 05:32 local time, giving 11h 19m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-25.97, 32.58) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Maputo.
Maputo runs on Africa/Maputo, which puts the city UTC +2 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.
The zone identifier Africa/Maputo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Maputo keeps pointing at Maputo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
