Hi @zilto, thanks for the generous research and report! This behavior is [due to date.h (upstream library we use for timezone logic) not supporting offsets](https://github.com/HowardHinnant/date/issues/823). As a workaroud you can use `"Etc/GMT+1"` format that is a [valid TZ identifier](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones) (this will cover only full hour offsets AFAIK). We discussed and agreed Arrow should support offsets ([[1]](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/30036) [[2]](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/36558)). I seem to have a [stale PR](https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/12865) for this that I could complete at some point or hand it over to someone. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
