Canada has six official time zones

Stations in Antarctica generally keep the time of their supply bases, thus both the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station (U.S.) and McMurdo Station (U.S.) use New Zealand time (UTC+12 southern winter, UTC+13 southern summer).
The 27°N latitude passes back and forth across time zones in South Asia
Pakistan: +05, India +05:30, Nepal +05:45, India (Sikkim) +05:30, China +08:00, Bhutan +06:00, India (Arunachal Pradesh) +05:30, Myanmar +06:30
This switching was more odd in 2002, when Pakistan enabled daylight saving time
Thus from west to east, time zones were: +06:00, +05:30, +05:45, +05:30, +08:00, +06:00, +05:30 and +06:30.
Because the earliest and latest time zones are 26 hours apart, any given calendar date exists at some point on the globe for 50 hours
For example, April 11 begins in time zone UTC+14 at 10:00 UTC April 10, and ends in time zone UTC−12 at 12:00 UTC April 12.
There are 22 places where three or more time zones meet, for instance at the tri-country border of Finland, Norway and Russia
28 countries present such triple points, with China being the most present (in 13 of the 22 triple points)
Then come India (7), Russia, India and Afghanistan (4).
There are 40 time zones
This is due to fractional hour offsets and zones with offsets larger than 12 hours near the International Date Line as well as one unofficial zone in Australia
See the list of time zones.
The largest time gap along a political border is the 3.5 hour gap along the border of China (UTC+08) and Afghanistan (UTC+04:30).
