The xs:time type specifies a time of day. Its contents appear in the format hh:mm:ss, where hh is the hour (00–23), mm is the minute (00–59) and ss is the second (00–59, plus a possible decimal part). Acceptable times include 04:03:20, 12:00:00, and 18:47:49.

A time zone relative to Coordinated Universal Time, also known as Greenwich Time or UTC, may also be added. If there is a time zone, the format is ± hh:mm, wherein a plus or minus sign is followed by a two-digit value for hours, then a colon, and then a two-digit value for minutes. You can also use Z in place of the time zone, indicating UTC. Valid times with a time zone include 04:03:20+05:00, 12:00:00-10:30, and 18:47:49Z.
