Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the mean solar time of the meridian of Greenwich, England, used as the prime basis of standard time throughout the world. From 1884 to 1928, Greenwich Mean Time was the official name (and still the popular name) for universal time. It is now referred to Coordinated Universal Time.

| - Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the mean solar time of the meridian of Greenwich, England, used as the prime basis of standard time throughout the world. From 1884 to 1928, Greenwich Mean Time was the official name (and still the popular name) for universal time. It is now referred to Coordinated Universal Time.
- Greenwich Mean Time was a specific time used on the planet Earth as a standard time for many years. Greenwich Mean Time was first measured and transmitted on the Shepherd Gate Clock at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. (DTI novel: Watching the Clock) An international convention chose to run Earth's zero meridian through Greenwich, establishing Greenwich Mean Time. (DS9 - Millennium novel: The War of the Prophets)
- Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) originally referred to the mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, which later became adopted as a global time standard. It is for the most part the same as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and when this is viewed as a time zone, the name Greenwich Mean Time is especially used by bodies connected with the United Kingdom, such as the BBC World Service, the Royal Navy, the Met Office and others particularly in Arab countries, such as the Middle East Broadcasting Center and OSN. It is the term in common use in the United Kingdom and countries of the Commonwealth, including Australia, South Africa, India, Pakistan and Malaysia, and many other countries in the Eastern Hemisphere.
- The following use Greenwich Mean Time for their timecodes:
- Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is the mean solar time at the Royal Greenwich Observatory in Greenwich near London, England, which by convention is at 0 degrees geographic longitude. Theoretically, noon Greenwich Mean Time is the moment when the Sun crosses the Greenwich meridian (and reaches its highest point in the sky in Greenwich). To convert from GMT add the value shown in the table below for the local time zone. Convert to GMT by subtracting the value.

For all of Greater China, GMT remains 7 hours before Beijing time all year around. Thus, 7 AM in Beijing is midnight in Greenwich mean time. While DST is in force for the US, the time in Beijing is exactly twelve hours ahead of New York time.
