How to use it
- Add each past or planned stay with its entry and exit date. The first and last day are both counted.
- Choose the date to check, for example today or the day you plan to enter.
- Read how many of the 90 days are used and left, and how long you could stay if you entered on that date.
How the days are counted
- Every date from entry to exit, inclusive, is one day of stay. Overlapping stays count each day once.
- The window for a date D covers 180 days: D and the 179 days before it.
- Days used = days of stay inside that window. Days left = 90 minus days used; if the number is negative, the tool shows the days over the limit.
- For the planned stay, the calculator adds one day at a time from the check date, moving the window along, and stops before the day on which more than 90 days would be used. The last day shown is the last day inside the limit.
Worked example
Stays on 1 to 20 June 2026 (20 days) and 10 to 24 September 2026 (15 days), checked on 3 November 2026: the window starts on 8 May 2026 and includes both stays, so 35 days are used and 55 are left.
Important
The rule applies to short stays. Some travellers have other rules, for example people with a residence permit or visa-free agreements with specific states. This tool does not check nationality, permits or which countries are in the area. It is not legal advice: check the official EU short-stay calculator before you travel.
