In Cyprus, on October 26, clocks will be set back one hour
In Cyprus, during the night of Sunday, October 26, clocks will be set back one hour — residents will effectively gain an extra hour of sleep, reports omegalive. The time change will end the summer period and return the country to standard (winter) time.
The change will take place in the early hours of October 26; users need to manually set back the time on mechanical, wall, and some household devices. Smartphones and most computers will update the time automatically, the outlet notes.
Practical advice for Cyprus residents: check alarm clocks, timers, and home device settings (heating controls, security systems, kitchen appliances). Travelers and public transport passengers are advised to confirm schedules and possible departure time changes in advance. Employers and organizations should coordinate shift schedules and remote meetings to avoid discrepancies.
The clock change is a standard annual procedure; in case of doubt, one should consult official notifications from transport operators, employers, and service providers.
