Notes:
- The westernmost point where UTC with no DST is applied is Bjargtangar, at the northwest peninsula of Iceland (24°32' W). Time used there is 1 hour and 38 minutes ahead of physical time. This is the greatest deviation from physical time for UTC with no DST.
- The easternmost locale where UTC with no DST is applied is Bouvet Island, of Norwegian jurisdiction, at the South Atlantic Ocean (3°24' E).
As standard time (Northern Hemisphere winter only) [edit]
- Alderney

- Morocco
- United Kingdom (GMT / BST)
Notes:
- The westernmost point where UTC with DST is applied is El Hierro, Canary Islands, Spain (18°00' W). Time used there is 2 hours and 12 minutes ahead of physical time in the summer, making for the greatest discrepancy in the UTC time zone.
- The easternmost settlement where UTC with DST is applied is Lowestoft in Suffolk, East Anglia, England (at just 1°45' E).
As daylight saving time (Northern Hemisphere summer only) [edit]
- Greenland - an eastern region around Ittoqqortoormiit (Scoresbysund)

This is the reverse of the practice of most countries in the EU, but provides the same end results.
