How it is calculated

Medina is fixed at UTC+3. Subtract 3 hours to get UTC, then add the Istanbul offset on that date (UTC+3) from the IANA time-zone database, zone Europe/Istanbul.

Example

Inputs: Date in Medina = 2026-07-15, Time in Medina = 09:00. Result: Time in Istanbul: 09:00 Wednesday; Date in Istanbul: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 (2026-07-15); Time difference: 0 hours.

Limits and caveats

  • DST dates and zone rules come from the time-zone database on your device or browser, so a recent rule change it has not received can shift the result.
  • All of Turkey shares one time, so the result is the same for Ankara and Antalya.
