In Mexico, Daylight Saving Time is known as the horario de verano (summer schedule). It has been observed since 1996 throughout most of the country. Take note that the state of Sonora, as well as some remote villages do not change their clocks.
When is Daylight Saving Time in Mexico?
The dates of Daylight Saving Time in Mexico are different from the United States, which can cause some confusion, particularly in border regions. In Mexico, Daylight Saving Time begins the first Sunday in April and ends the last Sunday in October. So, on the first Sunday in April Mexicans change their clock forward one hour at 2 a.m. and on the last Sunday in October, they change their clocks back one hour at 2 a.m.
