# Control Time Zone for bookings

Time zones affect how appointment times appear on the booking widget and in your admin calendar.\
In this section, you can:

* Set your **default business time zone**
* Decide whether customers can **select their own time zone**
* Keep all bookings aligned with your store’s operating hours

These options help prevent missed or incorrect appointments caused by time zone differences.
