Krasnoyarsk Time is used by the Russian federal subjects shown in pink on the map.

Krasnoyarsk Time (KRAT) is the time zone 7 hours ahead of UTC (UTC+7) and 4 hours ahead of Moscow Time (MSK+4). Krasnoyarsk Summer Time (KRAST) is UTC+8, but remains constant as regards Moscow Time (MSD+4). KRAT/KRAST is the official time zone for Kemerovo oblast (Western Siberian region), Krasnoyarsk Krai, and most other Eastern Siberian regions in Russia. Previously known as Novosibirsk Time (NOVT/NOVST), in 1993 Novosibirsk Oblast changed time zones and since then has used Omsk Time (MSK+3/MSD+3), thus requiring a new name for the time zone.
