Design #297
openIn the "Context" section the Start Date is behaving oddly
0%
Description
I entered 2020-01-01 at 0:0:1, but what got registered is 2019-12-31 at 06:00:00
And it won't take any correction.

Timezone should just be directly what they enter

This should be fixed now, let me know if the issue persists. Note: I changed the way the juridstiction layout is now:
"in_effect": [ { "country": "AD", "timezone": { "start": "UTC+03:30", "end": "UTC+03:30" }, "startDate": "2025-05-19T21:00:18.000Z", "endDate": "" } ],
Let me know if you want me to change this.
Perhaps having the start {timezone,date} and end {timezone,date} would look better.

Don recommends only one timezone.
Country,subcountry use ISO representation.
Use the code, ex "AD-04"
If a country doesn't have a sub-division or applies to the whole country you just use the code "AD".
Subdivision should have all.
//Remove the word Date from display.
// Change UTC to ISO standard timezone. Don't record them as offset eithers.
//Change from start Time to After //Change from end time to until. { "code": "AW", //if all subdivision is picked "timezone": "UTC+03:30", "after": "2025-07-08T22:09:19.000Z", "until": "2044-07-07T22:09:19.000Z" }, { "code": "AD-04", //if a subdivision is picked "timezone":"UTC+03:30", "after": "2025-07-08T22:09:19.000Z", "until": "2044-07-07T22:09:19.000Z" }

Here is a convenient table of the ISO 8601 time zones:
https://time-time.net/times/time-zones/world-time-zones.php
... which otherwise ISO changes a lot of money for:
