Visa-Free Travel Calculator
Track visa-free allowance usage across a rolling window.
About Visa-Free Travel Calculator
A rolling window means the allowance must hold for every possible window ending on the departure date, rather than for a calendar period. Days drop out of the window as they age past it. Border officers calculate this at entry, so an arriving traveller can be refused even when the planned stay itself is short.
Formula
Visa-Free Travel
Days remaining = allowance − days used in the window − planned stay
- rolling window
- The allowance applies to any consecutive window, not a fixed period
- overstay
- Can trigger entry bans lasting years, not just fines
