The real rolling window

Not a fixed 6-month block. Every date is checked against the 180 days before it — the way border officers apply the rule.

Entry and exit days count

Arrive Monday, leave Friday — that is 5 days, not 4. The calculator counts both, always, so your number is never optimistic.

Private by design

No account, no server, no tracking of your trips. Everything is calculated in your browser and stored only on your device.

Days in Schengen — last 6 months

How the 90/180 rule works

  1. 1
    Pick any day

    Today, or a future arrival date you are planning.

  2. 2
    Look back 180 days

    Count back exactly 180 days from that day — not calendar months, not calendar halves.

  3. 3
    Count every day inside Schengen

    Any country, any reason — tourism, family, business. Entry and exit days both count.

  4. 4
    Total must be 90 or less

    At 91+, you are overstaying on that day — with fines, deportation and entry bans possible.

2026 change: The EU Entry/Exit System (EES) now logs crossings digitally instead of passport stamps, and ETIAS authorisation is rolling out for visa-exempt travellers. The 90/180 limit itself has not changed — but it is now automatically tracked.

The 29 Schengen countries

Your 90 days are shared across all of them combined — not 90 days per country:

AustriaBelgiumBulgariaCroatiaCzechiaDenmarkEstoniaFinlandFranceGermanyGreeceHungaryIcelandItalyLatviaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMaltaNetherlandsNorwayPolandPortugalRomaniaSlovakiaSloveniaSpainSwedenSwitzerland

Ireland is in the EU but not in Schengen, and neither is the UK — days there don't use your allowance.

Why travellers get this rule wrong

…and how this calculator gets it right.

Rolling window, not a reset

The 180 days never reset on 1 January or on your first entry. Every day, the window slides forward and old days expire one by one. We recompute your count for every date, exactly the way the European Commission's method works.

Entry + exit days count

Arrive Monday, leave Friday — that's 5 days, not 4. We count both, always.

Earliest legal return

Out of days? The planner finds the first date you can legally come back, and for how long.

All 29 countries, one allowance

France + Spain + Italy share the same 90 days. Moving between them doesn't reset anything.

EES & ETIAS ready (2026)

Crossings are now logged digitally by the EU Entry/Exit System. Your count is visible to border officers — know it before they do.

Private by design

No server, no account, no tracking of your trips. Everything is calculated and stored only in your browser.

Why choose SchengenDays

Four honest reasons — each one is verifiable on this page.

The tool is the page

No blog post to read first, no signup wall, no email gate. The calculator is at the top and answers in seconds.

The math is the official math

The calculation follows the European Commission's published method and is recomputed day-by-day — nothing estimated, nothing rounded.

Your trips stay yours

There is no database of travellers behind this site. Your dates never leave your browser, and the page works the same for everyone.

Built for the 2026 rules

With EES logging crossings digitally and ETIAS rolling out, guessing is riskier than ever. This page is checked against current EU guidance.

METHODOLOGY & SOURCES

How we calculate — and where the rule comes from

This calculator implements the European Commission's published method for the 90/180-day rule: for each day of stay, the 180-day period preceding that day is checked, entry and exit days both count as days of presence, and the total must not exceed 90 days. Every figure on this page is recomputed day-by-day from the trips you enter — nothing is estimated or rounded.

  • Primary source: European Commission — Short-stay calculator (Migration and Home Affairs)
  • Rules last checked: , including the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) and ETIAS rollout. We re-check this page against official EU guidance whenever the rule or Schengen membership changes.
  • Who this page is for: visa-exempt and short-stay visitors from the US, UK, Canada, Australia and other visa-free countries planning tourism, family or business trips.
  • Not counted here: stays covered by an EU residence permit or a national long-stay (D-type) visa are not subject to the 90/180 rule — do not enter them.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Schengen 90/180 rule?

Visa-exempt and short-stay visitors may spend at most 90 days in any rolling 180-day period across all Schengen countries combined. On any day, look back 180 days and count your days of presence — the total must not exceed 90.

Do entry and exit days count?

Yes. Both the day you enter and the day you leave count as full days of presence.

Does the 180-day window reset on 1 January?

No. It never resets. It rolls forward every day, and old days drop out continuously — that's why your allowance comes back gradually, not all at once.

Can I leave and come back the next day to reset my 90 days?

No. Leaving does not reset anything. Only time passing — old days falling out of the 180-day window — restores your allowance. Use the planner above to find your earliest legal return date.

What happens if I overstay?

Fines, deportation and multi-year entry bans are possible. With the EES, overstays are logged automatically, so don't rely on a stamp being missed.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. Everything is calculated in your browser and saved only on this device. No account, no server, no tracking of your trips.

I have an EU residence permit or a long-stay (D) visa — should I enter those stays?

No. Periods of stay covered by an EU residence permit or a national long-stay (D-type) visa are not subject to the 90/180-day rule and should not be entered into this calculator, per the European Commission's guidance.
