Countries with a non-trivial counting rule

These destinations use a rolling window or a calendar year — you cannot count that in your head. For other countries pick a destination in the calculator above.

Rules for a specific passport

The calculator counts days against your dates. The entry mode, the counting window and the vehicle import rules depend on the passport — they live on the passport pages.

Frequently asked questions

How are days of stay counted in Brazil?

A rolling window of 365 days applies: on any given date the days spent during the previous 365 days are counted. You are allowed 180 days inside that window, and they come back gradually as they drop out of it.

Does leaving the country reset the day counter?

No. With a rolling window, leaving does not reset anything: each day drops out on its own 365 days after you spent it. A short exit and return does not give you a fresh full allowance.

How do I count several trips in a row?

Add every entry and exit — the calculator sums the days of each trip, shows how many are used and how many are left on the date you pick, and names the day when the full allowance is available again.

What happens if I overstay?

Usually a fine and an entry ban, scaled to the country and the number of overstayed days. This calculation is an estimate: the border authority always makes the final decision on entry and length of stay.
