Rolling 180-day allowance, not a calendar count Subtracts days already spent from the 90-day cap and adds back the days that roll out of the 180-day window during the trip: 79 used, 4 rolling out leaves 15 days allowed, the line hand counts and chatbots get wrong.
The last legal day inside, as a date Turns the allowance into the date a border officer will read. A 21-day trip entered on 2026-10-05 with 15 days allowed has its last legal day on 2026-10-19 and is 6 days over.
Fine plus blocked-trip cost, in euros Prices the overstay: a EUR 1,000 national fine plus EUR 28,800 of blocked trips behind a 12-month entry ban at 6 trips a year worth EUR 4,800 each totals EUR 29,800 of exposure.
Written for the EES, live since 10 April 2026 The Entry/Exit System has been fully operational at every Schengen external border since 10 April 2026, so the day total is a machine record, not a passport stamp someone forgot to read.

The fine amount is yours to set, never invented Overstay fines are set by each member state's national law and vary widely, so the fine and the entry-ban length are inputs you fill from the country you exit through, not numbers this tool makes up.
Paid axis: keep it and be reminded The USD 60 key exports each check as a CSV row for the traveller's mobility file and sets a browser alarm before the last legal day; the calculation itself is free and uncapped.

This page is the working piece. The full pack has everything below.
Prices one planned trip against the EES day count: days left, the last legal day inside, and the euro exposure if the trip runs past it.
A Grade A London 1 solicitor is billed at GBP 579 an hour under the 2026 Guideline Hourly Rates (judiciary.uk, in force 1 January 2026); one hour of overstay advice costs more than this checker.
You give it the days a traveller has already spent in the Schengen area in the last 180 days, the days that roll out of that window during the trip, the entry date and the planned length. It returns the days allowed, the last legal day inside as a date, the days over the cap, and the euro exposure of going over.
Who is it for?
Contract engineers, consultants and the mobility or HR staff behind them, travelling visa-free on UK, US, Canadian or Indian passports into the Schengen area several times a year. It is for the person who cannot say, without a spreadsheet, whether next month's three-week job still fits inside the 90-day cap.
Why is a free day counter not enough?
Free 90/180 counters return a number of days and stop there. They never price what going over costs, because the fine is set by each member state's national law and the entry ban is a separate decision logged in SIS. They also leave you with nothing you can file when HR asks for the working.
What is free and what needs the key?
Every calculation is free and uncapped, in the extension popup and on the web page, with no watermark and no lockout after a number of runs. The twenty-nine dollar key adds two things on a different axis: CSV export of each check for the mobility file, and a browser alarm before the last legal day arrives.
What would this cost handled by a person?
The 2026 Guideline Hourly Rates published by the judiciary put a Grade A London 1 solicitor at 579 pounds an hour, in force since 1 January 2026. A single hour spent asking whether a trip fits the 90/180 rule costs more than the key, and the answer is stale the next time the traveller flies.
