Microsoft has learned of a possible change to the observance of Daylight Saving Time (DST) in Iraq that could impact customers using the Baghdad time zone which is also called the Arabic time zone (GMT +03:00). We have unofficial reports that the Ministry of Iraq has decided that the country will no longer observe DST as they have in prior years, which has historically taken effect on April 1, 2008. This may impact customers and partners in the region who use the Baghdad time zone, including military facilities and other entities engaged in business in or with the region. We are actively working with members of the military and US government agencies to confirm the change. At this time it appears that the change is likely but that could be reversed at any time.
