About the time in Tokelau
Around 1,466 people live in Tokelau, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Tokelau runs on Pacific/Fakaofo, which puts the city UTC +13 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 Pacific/Fakaofo is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Pacific/Fakaofo keeps pointing at Fakaofo time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
