For example, between Perth, Western Australia and London, United Kingdom (both in pink), the time difference (in standard time) will be Perth, Western Australia, 8 hours ahead of London, United Kingdom.
• As of (1st Sunday in October) with the start of Australian daylight saving time, Sydney is +11h while Europe (still with daylight saving time from March) Paris is +2h, so Sydney will be 9 hours ahead of Paris.
• As of (last Sunday in October) with the return to Europe standard time, Paris is +1h and Sydney is +11h, so Sydney will be 10 hours ahead of Paris, difference that is maintained until the last Sunday of March of the following year.
• As of (last Sunday in March of the following year) with the start of daylight saving time in Europe, Paris is +2h and Sydney is +11h, so Sydney will be 9 hours ahead of Paris.
