Does the day of arrival and departure count towards the 90-day limit?
Yes — both your arrival and departure days count toward the 90-day Schengen limit. Even if you arrive late at night or leave early in the morning, each of those calendar days is counted as one full day spent in the Schengen Area. 🧭 Example: If you enter Germany on 1 May and leave France on 30 May, that’s considered 30 days, not 29. 💡 Tip: When planning multiple trips, always include your entry and exit dates in your total count — small miscalculations can lead to overstaying. To make things simple, you can use the European Commission’s official Schengen stay calculator or ask Outbound Singapore to help you track your travel days accurately. ✨ Stay compliant, travel confidently — let us handle the visa math for you.
