Saudi Arabia is on UTC+3 all year. Morocco is on UTC+1 all year, so the difference doesn’t change.
Morocco is on UTC+1 for most of the year but turns its clocks back to UTC+0 during Ramadan, so in Ramadan it is 3 hours behind Saudi Arabia instead of 2.
Best time to call Morocco
It’s daytime in both places (between 8 AM and 10 PM) from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm Saudi time, which is 8:00 am to 8:00 pm in Casablanca. That’s the easiest window for calling family or setting up a work meeting.
