- What is the 90/180 rule?
- Visitors from outside the EU who do not need a visa, such as people with British, American, Canadian or Australian passports, can stay in the Schengen area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. On any day, look back over the last 180 days, that day included: the days you were in the area must add up to 90 or fewer.
- Do the day I arrive and the day I leave count?
- Yes. Both count as full days in the Schengen area, even if you landed late at night or left first thing in the morning. A day trip counts as one day.
- Which countries are in the Schengen area?
- 29 countries as of November 2026: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Ireland and Cyprus are in the EU but not in Schengen, so days there do not count.
- Does moving between Schengen countries reset the count?
- No. The 90 days are for the whole area together. A week in France and a week in Italy are 14 days.
- Who does the rule not apply to?
- Citizens of EU and EEA countries and Switzerland, people with a residence permit or a long-stay visa from a Schengen country (for that country), and some nationalities with older bilateral agreements. If you are not sure, check with the embassy of the country you are visiting.
- Is this calculator official?
- No. It follows the same rule as the European Commission's calculator, but it is a guide, not legal advice. Check your dates against your passport stamps and the official calculator before you rely on them.
- Is anything saved?
- No. Your dates live in the link only. To have the count worked out for you, sign up to TripStow and forward your booking emails: it keeps your days in the area up to date and warns you if a planned trip would go over.
