Time zones and clock changes
Paris, Nice and Lyon all use Europe/Paris time. This section covers metropolitan France; French overseas territories use other time zones and are not represented by the mainland clock.
Holiday and working-day notes
The national list covers metropolitan public holidays. Alsace-Moselle and overseas territories can have additional local holidays, and employer closure rules should be confirmed separately.
Planning accurately
Use a dated conversion for international meetings, particularly around European and North American daylight-saving changes.
Use the date-aware converter for future meetings and the working-days calculator for date ranges.
