Change timezone in Ubuntu Server 22.04

We often times have to change the timezone on our machines that we are using as our developer machine. Below you will find a few snippets related to how you can make sure that your system has the right timezone.

To list timezones you can run

timedatectl list-timezones

To set the timezone you can run

sudo timedatectl set-timezone Asia/Dhaka

Now you can use the timedatectl command to confirm the time zone update.

Output
