The window moves with you

Works out how many Schengen days remain under the 90/180 rule and whether a planned trip fits inside them.

The rule sounds simple: no more than 90 days in any 180. The trap is the word 'any' — the window is not tied to the calendar and does not reset on 1 January. For every day of your stay, the previous 179 are counted up along with it.

Which produces the consequence that surprises people most: days do not come back in a block, they come back one at a time. Leave after a three-month stay and your first free day arrives exactly 90 days later; a full 90 days takes another three months on top.

What to keep in mind

The day of entry and the day of exit both count as full days of presence — that is how a border officer counts them.
The rule covers short stays on a C visa or visa-free. Days on a national D visa or a residence permit do not count towards the limit.

FAQs

How is the 90/180 rule counted?

For any day of presence, look back 180 days including that one and add up every day spent inside the area. The total must not exceed 90.

Do the days reset on 1 January?

No. The window rolls and has nothing to do with the calendar year: days return to the balance as they fall past the 180-day boundary.

Does the day of arrival count?

Yes — both the arrival and the departure day count as full days of presence, even if you were in the country for a couple of hours.

What happens if you overstay?

A fine, an entry in the system, and a ban of anywhere from months to years. Even a single extra day is recorded and surfaces at the next visa application.

Worked example

An autumn trip after a summer one

Input: Entering 2026-09-01, 20 days used in the previous 180, 14 planned

Output: 70 days available, the trip fits with 56 left

Note: Those twenty used days might be a summer holiday. What matters is that by the entry date some of them may already have fallen outside the 180-day window and returned to the balance.
