Time in Hungary
Daylight saving time was introduced in Hungary first in 1916 and it was observed until 1919. After that DST was in use between 1941–1949 and 1954-1957. DST has been in use again since 1980. The 24-hour clock is used in formal or informal settings and the 12-hour clock is used largely in informal settings. The time format is "hh óra mm perc", but the numeric form hh.mm or hh:mm can also be used. Example: The IANA time zone database contains one zone for Hungary in the file zone.tab, which is named Europe/Budapest.
