Schengen 90/180-Day Calculator

Add every trip you've taken (or plan to take) into the Schengen Area in the last 180 days. We'll tell you exactly how many days you have left and the earliest date you can re-enter if you're over.

Default is today. Change this to plan a future entry — e.g. set it to your planned arrival date.

How the Schengen 90/180 rule actually works

US, Canadian, UK, and Australian passport holders can stay in the Schengen Area without a visa for up to 90 days within any rolling 180-day period. The catch is the word rolling — your allowance is recalculated every single day based on the previous 180 days, not on a calendar quarter.

On any day you enter, the border officer subtracts 180 days from today and counts how many of those days you spent inside Schengen. If that number is 90 or more, you're refused entry. Both your arrival day and your departure day count as full days, even if you only crossed the border for a few hours.

What counts as Schengen?

All 29 Schengen countries — including new members Bulgaria, Romania, and Croatia (joined 2023–2024) and the non-EU members Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. Days in any of these count toward your 90.

Not Schengen:Ireland, Cyprus, the UK, Albania, Bosnia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, Türkiye, Morocco. You can use these as "reset locations" if you're close to your limit (though days don't actually reset, they just stop accumulating).

What changes in late 2026

The European Commission has confirmed ETIAS will launch in Q4 2026. It's a €20 online travel authorization, good for 3 years, that US citizens will need before flying to Schengen. The 90/180 rule itself does not change — ETIAS is in addition.
