I think it may be set to "Europa/Madrid" which is not a known zone so tzlibs assume UTC. $ TZ=Europe/Madrid date Sun 25 Jun 22:57:08 CEST 2017 $ TZ=Europa/Madrid date Sun 25 Jun 20:59:54 Europa 2017 However you shouldn't need to set it as your system time is already "Europe/Madrid" (note spelling). To change the overall system timezone on Debian/Ubuntu, best way is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata".
