All Timezone Conversions

Cron CET to UTC

Convert cron job schedules from CET to UTC timezone.

Timezone Offset

-1 hours

CET (UTC+1) → UTC (UTC+0)

Conversion Examples

To run a job at a specific CET time, use the UTC expression below:

Target time (CET) Cron in UTC Equivalent UTC time
Midnight CET0 23 * * *11 PM (previous day)
9 AM CET0 8 * * *8 AM
Noon CET0 11 * * *11 AM
5 PM CET0 16 * * *4 PM

How to Use

If your server runs in UTC but you want jobs to execute at CET times:

  1. Take your desired CET hour
  2. Subtract 1 hours
  3. If result is negative, add 24 (job runs previous day)
  4. If result is 24 or more, subtract 24 (job runs next day)

Interactive Converter

For complex schedules, use our Timezone Converter Tool to see exact run times in both timezones.

Important Notes

  • Standard cron has no timezone support - it uses the server's local time
  • Day boundaries: When converting crosses midnight, the day also changes
  • DST: Consider daylight saving time - offsets may change by 1 hour seasonally
  • Kubernetes & cloud platforms: Many support explicit timezone configuration

Stop timezone headaches
