Kampong Cham, Cambodia

Current time in Kampong Cham, Cambodia

The current-time display for Kampong Cham follows Cambodia’s national civil time. It applies across the province, including Kampong Cham city and communities beside the Mekong River or farther inland.

Because the offset remains consistent through the year, converting the time is usually straightforward. Add seven hours to UTC. When comparing Kampong Cham with another place, check whether that place changes its clocks seasonally; Kampong Cham itself does not.

In Kampong Cham, the clock stays steady even when the river and the daylight do not. A date check matters when calling from far to the west. Kampong Cham may already be on the next calendar day while Europe, Africa, or the Americas are still completing the previous one.

Kampong Cham time zone

The province observes Indochina Time, commonly abbreviated ICT. Its UTC offset is UTC+7. This is the same clock setting used in Phnom Penh and every other Cambodian province, so domestic travel does not require a time-zone adjustment.

Time zone: Indochina Time Standard abbreviation: ICT UTC offset: UTC+7 Seasonal clock change: none Difference within Cambodia: none A fixed offset makes timetables easier to read, but it does not guarantee that two international locations retain the same difference all year. A city using summer time can move one hour closer to Kampong Cham and later move back.

Largest cities, local places, and sunrise

Kampong Cham city is the provincial capital and the clearest reference point for local time. Other notable population centres and market towns in the province include Skun and Chamkar Leu. Definitions of “city” vary, so settlement lists may also include district centres rather than legally designated cities.

Every one of these places uses the same provincial and national time. There is no separate Mekong time or rural clock setting. A meeting stated for local time therefore needs no conversion when participants travel between communities in Kampong Cham.

Sunrise is not fixed to one clock reading. It changes gradually with the season and varies slightly by position within the province. A daily sunrise value should therefore be read for the selected place and date, not treated as a permanent provincial figure.

Confirm that Kampong Cham is the selected location. Check the date attached to the sunrise result. Use local ICT when setting an alarm or departure time. Allow for civil twilight if usable outdoor light matters.

Sunrise marks the appearance of the Sun at the horizon under standard calculations. Hills, buildings, trees, haze, and the observer’s exact position can alter when sunlight becomes visible on the ground.
