Para empezar
La regla, cómo se cuenta cada día y las preguntas más frecuentes.
The Schengen 90/180 rule, explained
What the Schengen 90/180 rule says, who it applies to, which countries share the count, and the mistakes that catch visitors out.
How Schengen days are counted
Entry and exit days, same-day trips and the rolling 180-day window, with worked examples using real dates.
How many days do I have left in Schengen?
How to work out your remaining Schengen days on any date, why days left isn't the same as how long you can stay, and the traps that catch people out.
When can I go back to Schengen?
When your Schengen days come back after a stay, including after a full 90 days, and how long you could stay if you entered on a given date. Worked examples.
Can I stay 90 days, leave, and come straight back?
No: leaving the Schengen area doesn't reset your 90 days. Why a visa run fails, when you can really come back, and how back-to-back trips add up.
Overstaying in Schengen: what can happen
What EU law and official sources say about overstaying your 90 days: return decisions, entry bans, SIS alerts, the EES, and what to do if you're already over.

Qué lugares cuentan
Los microestados, las islas y los miembros más recientes, uno por uno.
Microstates, Cyprus, Ireland, Bulgaria and Romania: the edge cases
Which places count toward your Schengen 90 days and which don't: Monaco, San Marino, the Vatican, Andorra, Cyprus, Ireland, Bulgaria and Romania.
Does Monaco count toward the Schengen 90 days?
Yes. Days in Monaco count toward the Schengen 90/180 limit, because France handles its immigration. Why, how you get there, and a worked example.
Does Andorra count toward the Schengen 90 days?
No. Andorra is outside Schengen, so days there don't count, but the days you cross do. Border checks, the EES, and a worked example with real dates.
Does Cyprus count toward the Schengen 90 days?
No. Cyprus is in the EU but not in Schengen, so its days don't count. It has its own 90-day limit, which we count separately. A worked example.
Does Ireland count toward the Schengen 90 days?
No. Ireland is in the EU but outside Schengen, so days there don't count. Its own visitor rules, the Common Travel Area with the UK, and an example.

How to check your remaining Schengen days with EES
Use the EU's official "Check how long you can stay" tool: what it asks for, what it shows, and why its answer can differ from your own count.
How to ask for your EES record (Article 52)
Who to ask for a copy of your Entry/Exit System record, what to include, what the authority must send back within 45 days, and what it costs.
What to do if your EES record is wrong
A missing exit or a wrong date in the Entry/Exit System can cost you days. How to get it corrected, the evidence to gather, and what to do at the border.
ETIAS in 2026: who needs it, what it costs, when it starts
ETIAS isn't running yet. Who will need it, the EUR 20 fee, three-year validity, the transition period, and why it doesn't change your 90/180 count.
