Cape Verde Time

Cape Verde Time (CVT) is a time zone used by the Atlantic island nation of Cape Verde.[1] The zone is one hour behind UTC (UTC−01:00).[2]

This time zone applies all the year round.[3] Due to its geographical location, completely west of the meridian 22°30'W (which forms the boundary between UTC−01:00 and UTC−02:00) Cape Verde effectively observes permanent daylight saving, given that the position of the archipelago is totally within the boundaries of UTC−02:00, the time zone observed until 1975.
