Poland scheduled for winter time transition in October 2026

In Poland, the transition from daylight saving time to winter time is scheduled for the night of October 24 to October 25, 2026. At 3:00 AM, clocks will be set back to 2:00 AM, resulting in an extra hour of sleep.

The date is determined by the current regulation stating that the change occurs on the last Sunday of October. In 2026, this falls on October 25, which is earlier than in the previous three years (2023, 2024, and 2025) due to the calendar layout rather than a change in rules.

Most modern electronic devices, such as smartphones, computers, and tablets, should update automatically. However, manual adjustments may be necessary for traditional watches, alarm clocks, certain household appliances, and older vehicle clocks.
