According to Armenian legislation, the last Sunday of March, at 02:00
the pointers of the clock will be drawn an hour forward, marking the
start of " summer time."

RA Deputy Minister of Trade and Economic Development Garnik Badalyan
told Armenpress that the "summer time" which starts in Europe and
CIS countries the last Sunday of March is artificial and is targeted
at the effective use of summer days and weakening of overloading of
the energy sector. The real geographic time in the republic is the
"winter time," which starts on the last Sunday of October.
