By default time zone of laravel project is **UTC*

you can find time zone setting in App.php of config folder

'timezone' => 'UTC',

now change according to your time zone for me it's Asia/Calcutta

so for me setting will be 'timezone' => 'Asia/Calcutta',

After changing your time zone setting run command php artisan config:cache

*for time zone list visit this url https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ref_timezones.asp

There is an easy way to set the default timezone in laravel or lumen  This is helpful while working in multiple environments where you can use different timezone based on each environment   Open  env file present inside the your project directory Add APP TIMEZONE Asia Kolkata in  env  Your can choose any timezone from the supported timezones  Open app php present inside bootstrap folder of your project directory Add date default timezone set env  APP TIMEZONE    UTC     in app php   With this change your project will take your  env set timezone and if there is nothing set then take UTC by default   After modifying the time zone setting run command php artisan config clear so that your changes reflect in your application

You can set your app time zone by configuring app php file in config folder    To change time zone   modify the value of timezone in app php file   This is written in this section   --------------------------------------------------------------------------   Application Timezone  --------------------------------------------------------------------------     Here you may specify the default timezone for your application  which   will be used by the PHP date and date-time functions  We have gone   ahead and set this to a sensible default for you out of the box      For me i am using Asia Dhaka as my application time zone   Here is the appropriate syntax      timezone    gt   Asia Dhaka    list of timezones for PHP 5

There are two ways to update your code  1  Please open the file app php file present in config directory at lool of your project  Go down the page and check Application Timezone  where you will find    timezone    gt   UTC     Here you can add your timezone like    timezone    gt   Europe Paris     If you want to manage your timezone from  env file  then you can add below code in your config php file    timezone    gt  env  APP TIMEZONE    UTC      and add the below line in your  env file   APP TIMEZONE  Europe Paris    Please check the link below for more information  https   laravel com docs 5 6 configuration accessing-configuration-values

You just have to edit de app php file in config directory Just find next lines      --------------------------------------------------------------------------   Application Timezone  --------------------------------------------------------------------------     Here you may specify the default timezone for your application  which   will be used by the PHP date and date-time functions  We have gone   ahead and set this to a sensible default for you out of the box         timezone    gt   UTC     And   chage it for    timezone    gt   Europe Paris

In my case  reading a date from a MySQL db in a Lumen 5 1 project  the only solution that worked is using Carbon  to set timezone of variables        carbonDate   new Carbon  dateFromDBInUTC        carbonDate- gt timezone    America New York       return  carbonDate- gt toDayDateTimeString       or  carbonDate- gt toDateTimeString   for ISO format   Using DB TIMEZONE -05 00 in the  env file almost worked but does not handle DST changes   Using the APP TIMEZONE America New York in the  env file had no effect on a timezone value retrieved in a Lumen 5 1 webapp from a MySQL database  but it works in Lavarel 5 1   Also Lumen didn t read at all the   lumen project  config app php file that I created  it didn t complain when I put a syntax error there     Using date default timezone set didn t work either

Please try this - Create a directory  config  in your lumen setup  and then create app php file inside this  config  dir  it will look like this -   lt  php return   app timezone    gt   America Los Angeles      Then you can access its value anywhere like this -   value   config  app timezone      If it doesn t work  you can add this lines in routes php  date default timezone set  America Los Angeles      This worked for me

After changing app php  make sure you run    php artisan config clear   This is needed to clear the cache of config settings  If you notice that your timestamps are still wrong after changing the timezone in your app php file  then running the above command should refresh everything  and your new timezone should be effective
