> **Note:** This changelog entry is historical. Edge Functions are deprecated for new projects. Use [Vercel Functions](https://vercel.com/docs/functions) with the Node.js runtime and [Fluid compute](https://vercel.com/docs/fluid-compute). Use [Routing Middleware](https://vercel.com/docs/routing-middleware) for request-time routing before a response completes.

Requests received by Vercel Functions are now enriched with headers containing information about the timezone of the visitor:

As an example, a request from Tokyo is now enriched with the following headers:

```text
X-Vercel-IP-Latitude: 37.7749
X-Vercel-IP-Longitude: -122.4194

X-Vercel-IP-Timezone: Japan
```

This header is now automatically activated for all new and existing Vercel Functions for all plans — no code or configuration change needed.

Check out [the documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/headers#request-headers) as well.
