Microsoft Teams does not yet support new South Sudan time zone

Question

Hello Teams Community,

Please i need your help on this issue.

We cannot use the new '(UTC+2:00) Juba' time zone created by Microsoft for South Sudan back in March 2021 in the Teams Desktop app.

When the 'Juba (+02:00) time zone is selected in Windows, the latest Teams desktop client [1.5.00.11163 (64-bit)] defaults to UTC instead, and the new time zone is not visible in the New Meeting dialog.

I was told that an ETA has been communicated by the engineering team for a fix to be done in Q1 CY2022, that is First Quarter (January to the end March) of the year 2022.

Does anyone have an idea
