How to use the Schengen 90/180 calculator

Enter the entry and exit date of every Schengen trip in the last 180 days. If you are there now, leave the exit date empty.
Add any trips you are planning, so the calculator can check them too.
Set the check date — today, or the day you plan to enter.
Read your days used and days left, the latest date you can stay, and the earliest date a trip of your chosen length fits.
Before you book, confirm the result with the official EU short-stay calculator.

How the 90/180-day rule works

Short stays in the Schengen area are limited to 90 days in any 180-day period. The rule applies whether you need a short-stay visa or travel visa-free, and all Schengen countries share the same allowance.

Entry and exit days both count. A same-day visit is one day; a Friday-to-Sunday trip is three.
The window rolls. For any day, look back over that day and the 179 days before it. Each day you were in the Schengen area in that window counts.
Every day of a trip must pass. It is not enough to be under 90 days on arrival — the count is checked again on each day you stay, which is why the latest date you can stay can be later than “today plus days left”.
Long-stay visas and residence permits are different. Time spent in a country on its national long-stay visa or residence permit is governed by that permit, not by this calculator.

Example: you spent 30 days in Spain in spring and 20 days in Italy in the summer. On a day when both trips fall inside the last 180 days you have used 50 days and have 40 left. Once the spring trip slides out of the window, those 30 days come back.

The European Commission’s official short-stay calculator (opens in a new tab) applies the same rule and is the reference to check against before you travel.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Schengen 90/180-day rule?

Visitors on a short-stay visa, or visa-free, may spend at most 90 days in the Schengen area in any 180-day period. On each day of your stay you look back over that day and the 179 days before it; the days you spent in the Schengen area in that window must not add up to more than 90.

Do the entry and exit days count?

Yes. The day you enter and the day you leave both count as full days of stay, even if you arrive late at night or leave early in the morning. A trip from 1 to 10 June uses 10 days.

Is the 180-day period fixed or rolling?

It is rolling. There is no fixed start date or calendar half-year — the window moves forward one day at a time, so old days drop out and you gradually regain days.

Do days in different Schengen countries count separately?

No. All Schengen countries share one 90-day allowance. Days in France, Italy, Germany and every other Schengen state are added together. Time in non-Schengen countries does not count.

Does a visa valid for longer let me stay longer than 90 days?

No. A multiple-entry short-stay visa can be valid for years, but you still may not exceed 90 days in any 180-day period. Your visa sticker may also limit the number of days or entries — the shorter limit applies.

What happens if I overstay?

Overstaying can lead to fines, removal, an entry ban and a record that makes future visa applications harder. Rules and penalties are set by each country, so if you think you may overstay, contact the immigration authority of the country you are in before your days run out.

Is this calculator official?

No. It follows the published rule and is meant for planning. The European Commission publishes an official short-stay calculator, and border guards make the final decision when you cross the border.
