An estimate from the dates you enter. The border officer makes the final call, so leave a few days of margin.
All 29 Schengen countries share one count. A week in Spain and a week in Portugal is two weeks off the same 90. Tap a country to see how it counts.
Dark blue countries share one count of 90 days in any 180. Gold ones are in the EU but outside Schengen.
Four places people get wrong:
Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Liechtenstein aren’t in the EU, but they are in Schengen. A week in Reykjavík or Zurich comes off the same 90 as a week in Lisbon.
The UK isn’t in the EU or Schengen. Days in London don’t count, which is why a trip there pauses your count.
Ireland is in the EU but not in Schengen. Days there don’t count either.
Cyprus is in the EU but hasn’t joined Schengen yet. It keeps its own separate 90/180 count. Cyprus expects to join in 2027, and from then its days will count with the rest.
The EU’s Entry/Exit System (EES) started on 12 October 2025 and has run at every external Schengen border since 10 April 2026. It replaces passport stamps.
The officer scans your passport and takes your fingerprints and a photo. You only do this once.
Each entry and exit is logged automatically. Passport stamps are gone.
The officer sees how many of your 90 days you've used, worked out the same way as this calculator.
Want a second opinion on your dates? The EU has its own short-stay calculator.
ETIAS is a different thing: an online travel authorisation that visa-free visitors will need before they fly. It hasn’t started yet. When it does, it adds a step before your trip. It doesn’t change the 90/180 count.
EES logs your exit date, so any overstay is on record and can count against you when you later apply for a visa or residence card anywhere in Schengen. On top of that, each country sets its own penalty.
Extensions are for emergencies outside your control, like an illness or a cancelled flight. They’re not a way to stay longer, and you have to ask before your 90 days run out.
You can’t turn a tourist stay into residence from inside Portugal. The route that used to allow it, the manifestação de interesse, closed in June 2024. You apply for a residence visa at the Portuguese consulate or visa centre in the country where you live, then come back on that visa.
The two most people look at:
The D7 visa, for people living on a pension, savings, rental income or other passive income.
The D8 digital nomad visa, for remote workers with an employer or clients outside Portugal.
Both have income thresholds tied to Portugal’s minimum wage, which goes up every year. Once you’re here on the visa, AIMA turns it into a residence card, and your days in Portugal stop counting toward the 90.
15 minutes. Free. We’ll tell you which one fits.
To stay in Spain longer than 90 days you need a residence visa or permit. These are the two most people look at:
For people working for clients or an employer outside Spain.
You can apply from inside SpainFor people living on savings, a pension or passive income who won't work in Spain.
Apply at the consulate where you liveThe digital nomad route is the one where this calculator matters most: you have to apply while your visitor stay is still legal, so before your 90 days run out. Both visas have income thresholds that change each year, so check the current figures before you plan around them.
The dates on your visa. If you travel on a Schengen visa, you also have to leave by the last date printed on it, even if you still have days left.
Residence permits and long-stay visas. Days in a country where you hold a residence card or a national D visa don’t count. Leave those trips out.
Bilateral agreements. Some nationalities have older agreements with single countries, Brazil with Portugal for example, that can change the limit there. Check with that country’s consulate.
EU passports. If you hold any EU or Schengen passport, travel on it and the 90/180 rule doesn’t apply to you.

Yes. The day you arrive and the day you leave both count as full days, even if you land at 11pm or fly out at 6am.
No. Nothing resets the count. A weekend in London or a week in Morocco just pauses it. You only get days back as old days drop out of the 180-day window.
There are 29: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
No. The UK isn’t in the EU or Schengen. Ireland is in the EU but not in Schengen. Cyprus is in the EU but hasn’t joined Schengen yet, so it keeps its own separate 90/180 count. Cyprus expects to join in 2027, and from then its days will count with the rest.
Yes. Add the planned trip, then set “Count days on” to a date during it. The calculator shows how many days you’ll have used on that date and the latest day you can leave.
Yes, until the visa is issued and you enter Portugal on it. If you’re visiting as a tourist while you wait for a decision, those days count toward your 90. Once you live here on a D visa or a residence card, your days in Portugal no longer count.
In Portugal you can be fined €80 to €160 for an overstay of up to 30 days, €160 to €320 up to 90 days, €320 to €500 up to 180 days, and €500 to €700 beyond that. The same fine applies if it’s only spotted when you leave. A longer overstay can also mean a removal order and an entry ban across Schengen. EES logs your exit date, so the overstay is on record when you later apply for a visa or residence.
No. A multiple-entry visa lets you come and go, but the 90/180 limit still applies on top of the dates printed on the visa.
Days in the country that issued your permit don’t count. In the other Schengen countries you get the same 90 days in any 180 as a visitor.
No. Portugal and Spain are both in Schengen and share one count. Ninety days in Portugal uses up your 90, and moving to Spain doesn’t start a new one. You’d have to leave Schengen until enough old days drop out of the 180-day window.
No. It’s a free tool from Novomove that applies the EU’s 90/180 rule to the dates you enter. The EU has its own short-stay calculator, and at the border the EES record and the officer’s decision are what count.
Not yet. ETIAS hasn’t started. When it does, visa-free visitors will apply online before they travel. It won’t change the 90/180 count.
Not in Portugal. A D7 or D8 visa, and then your residence card, lets you live here, so your days in Portugal don’t count. In the other Schengen countries you can still visit for up to 90 days in any 180.
Yes. Spain is one of the 29 Schengen countries, so your days there come off the same 90 as everywhere else in Schengen. Add every Schengen trip, wherever it was, and the result is correct for Spain.
For the digital nomad visa, yes: you can apply from inside Spain while your visitor stay is still legal, so apply before your 90 days run out. The non-lucrative visa has to be applied for at the Spanish consulate where you live.
No. You register at the border the first time you cross: the officer scans your passport and takes your fingerprints and a photo. After that it runs in the background. ETIAS, the online travel authorisation, will need an application before you travel, but it hasn’t started yet.
Only in your own browser, so your trips are still there when you come back. Nothing is sent to Novomove. Clearing your browser data or pressing “Clear all” removes them.
