Bulgaria switches to daylight saving time on 29 March

Clocks with arrows that one needs to adjust manually have become a precious rarity in recent years

The Bulgarian Institute of Metrology has issued a reminder that at 3 AM local time on 29 March, 2020, Bulgaria goes to summer daylight saving time. Clocks have to be set forward by one hour. 

Every year, daylight saving time in Bulgaria starts on the last Sunday of March and ends on the last Sunday of October – in 2020 this will be on October 25  when clocks will again be adjusted an hour back.
