What time is it in France when I fax from the US?

France uses Central European Time (UTC+1, or UTC+2 from late March to late October). It is usually 6 hours ahead of US Eastern time, so a fax sent at 9 a.m. in New York arrives at 3 p.m. in Paris. For a few weeks each spring and autumn the gap is 5 hours, because the US and Europe change their clocks on different dates. Overseas departments such as Guadeloupe (+590), Martinique (+596), French Guiana (+594) and Réunion (+262) have their own country codes and time zones.
