CURRENT_TIMEZONE_ID (Transact-SQL)

[!INCLUDE sqlserver2022-asdb-asmi-fabricsqldb]

This function returns the ID of the time zone observed by a server or an instance. For Azure SQL Managed Instance, return value is based on the time zone of the instance itself assigned during instance creation, not the time zone of the underlying operating system.

Note

For SQL Database time zone is always set to UTC and CURRENT_TIMEZONE_ID returns the id of the UTC time zone.

Syntax

CURRENT_TIMEZONE_ID ( )  

Arguments

This function takes no arguments.

Return Type

varchar

Remarks

CURRENT_TIMEZONE_ID is a non-deterministic function. Views and expressions that reference this column cannot be indexed.

Example

The value returned will reflect the actual time zone and language settings of the server or the instance.

SELECT CURRENT_TIMEZONE_ID();  
/* Returned:  
W. Europe Standard Time
*/
