• As of (1st Sunday in April) with the return to Australian standard time, Sydney is +10h and Paris +2h, so Paris will be 8 hours behind Sydney.
• As of (1st Sunday in October) with the start of Australian Daylight Saving Time, Sydney is +11h and Paris +2h, so Paris will be 9 hours behind Sydney.
• As of (last Sunday in October) with the return to Europe standard time, Paris is +1h, and Sydney +11h, so Paris will be 10 hours behind Sydney, difference that is maintained until the last Sunday of March of the following year.
