i did many round of tests. Below is the minimum changes that required to get it work on 0.1.19 onward process.env.TZ=UTC verified it saves in mysql as UTC and retrieve as UTC perfectly. No need to add tyeporm option timezone.

great, I’m glad it finally works for you. 🎉 to sum it up for others that might have the same issue there are 2 solutions based on the underlying mysql driver in use:

1) with mysql:

set timezone option in typeorm to +0

2) with mysql2:

run the node process with the timezone environment variable TZ=UTC

I think you can close the issue now
