About the time in Pontbuiten
The zone identifier America/Paramaribo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Paramaribo keeps pointing at Paramaribo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Pontbuiten runs on America/Paramaribo, which puts the city UTC −3 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 06:35 and sunset at 06:52 local time, giving 12h 17m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (5.79, -55.21) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Pontbuiten.
