In order to get the default Time Zone in Java, we use the getDefault() method. The java.util.TimeZone.getDefault() method returns the default TimeZone for the particular host. The source of the default TimeZone varies with the implementation.

Declaration −The java.util.TimeZone.getDefault() method is declared as follows −

public static TimeZone getDefault()

import java.util.*;
public class Example {
   public static void main( String args[] ) {
      // creating default object of TimeZone
      TimeZone obj = TimeZone.getDefault();
      System.out.println("Default timezone object: 
" + obj);    } }
