European time zones:

WET – Western European Time

Time zone offset: UTC

WET is in the same time zone as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)

Note that most places observe daylight saving time/summer time during summer, and are therefore using WEST instead in the summer. See below for details.

Time zone abbreviations: WET, WEZ

Full name is Western European Time
WEZ – Westeuropäische Zeit (German)

Email time zone indicator: +0000

An email sent from someone in the WET time zone will have the time zone listed as "+0000" in the headers of the email. (However, "+0000" does not have to be in WET, as other time zones could have the same UTC offset).

For actual dates DST might be observed, look at the examples below
