# CurrentTimezone

The **CurrentTimezone** function returns the name of the [IANA time zone](https://www.iana.org/time-zones) configured as your organization's [account time zone](/docs/account-time-zone).

Workbook elements that use this system function are not supported by [materialization](/docs/materialization).

## Syntax

```
CurrentTimezone()
```

**CurrentTimezone** has no function arguments because it’s context-sensitive and doesn’t depend on any explicitly provided values.

## Example

```
CurrentTimezone()
```

The organization's account time zone is set to America/Los\_Angeles. **CurrentTimezone** returns the IANA time zone name, `America/Los_Angeles`.
