Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 90/180 rule for the Schengen Area?
This is a restriction that allows you to stay in the Schengen Area for no more than 90 days within any 180-day period, without needing a visa for short-term trips.
Are all days counted - including entry and exit days?
Yes, both entry and exit days are counted as full days of stay.
How are trips that cross the 180-day window handled?
The calculator analyzes each day, checking how many stay days occurred in the last 180 days from the specified date. Any days outside this window are not counted.
Can I find out when I can travel to Schengen again?
Yes. After entering trips, the calculator will show when you'll regain the right to enter if your limit is already exhausted.
Does this calculator account for visa type or country?
No. It only counts days of stay according to the 90/180 rule. For specific visas or regimes, check the conditions for your country or consulate.
What if I have a long-stay visa or residence permit?
This calculator is for visa-free travel only. Long-stay visas and residence permits have different rules and aren't subject to the 90/180 limitation.
Do transit stops count toward the 90 days?
International transit (remaining in the airport transit area) typically doesn't count. However, if you enter the country even briefly, it counts as a day.
What happens if I overstay?
Overstaying can result in fines, entry bans (up to several years), deportation, and difficulties with future visa applications. Always comply with the rules.
