Hallo,
I use the following commandline for a jpg:
exiftool -DateTimeOriginal>CreateDate -DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate -DateTimeOriginal>FileCreateDate ....
As a result I get:
---- File ----
File Modification Date/Time     : 2020:01:03 11:23:50+01:00
File Creation Date/Time         : 2020:01:03 11:23:50+01:00

---- EXIF ----
Date/Time Original              : 2020:01:03 11:23:50
Create Date                     : 2020:01:03 11:23:50

If the file is created in winter the offset is +1 an in summer the offset is +2.
How can I get the information witch offset is stored in the file?
Best regards

The EXIF tags you list don't have a time zone, only the system time stamps.  Those tags are from the underlying operating system and that is what figures out the time zone.

To list just them, you could use the %z code with the -d (dateFormat) option. See Common Date Format Codes for all date format codes.

Example
C:\>exiftool -time:all -g1 -a -s -d "%z" y:\!temp\Test4.jpg
---- System ----
FileModifyDate                  : -0700
FileAccessDate                  : -0700
FileCreateDate                  : -0800
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
