Tunisia will match Paris time from Sunday 25 October 2026, after mainland France returns to winter time. The one-hour difference will disappear until France’s next clock change, scheduled for 28 March 2027, according to TunisiaOnlineNews.

Mainland France switches back to winter time in the night from Saturday 24 to Sunday 25 October 2026: at 3am, the clocks go back to 2am. Tunisia does not change its clocks, so Tunis and Paris will now show the same time, according to TunisiaOnlineNews.

The one-hour difference separating the two countries during French summer time disappears until the next clock change in France, scheduled for 28 March 2027. An appointment set for 8pm in Paris will therefore also be at 8pm in Tunis, making it easier to coordinate calls, business meetings, online classes and travel between the two countries.

Tunisia remains on UTC+1 all year in 2026. Flight ticket times are nevertheless expressed according to the local time of each airport, TunisiaOnlineNews recalled.
