Portuguese days count toward all of Schengen

A week in Lisbon or the Algarve draws down the same Schengen budget as time in France or Italy. If your trip spans several member countries, add all the days together — there is no fresh count when you land in Porto.

How to count your days in Portugal

Both the day you arrive and the day you leave count in full. Add up every present day in the current rolling 180-day window; the calculator above does it from your dates.

Staying in Portugal longer than 90 days

Visa categories and income thresholds change; confirm with the Portuguese authorities. This is general information, not legal advice.
