How long can you stay in Spain?
Spain is in the Schengen Area, so visa-exempt visitors can stay up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Those days are shared across the whole Schengen Area — Spain does not give you a separate allowance.
Pick a single date if you are still there.
Schengen 90/180
Days by country
Spanish days count toward all of Schengen
There is no separate Spain quota. A day in Barcelona uses the same 90-day budget as a day in Paris or Berlin. If you split a trip across several Schengen countries, add every day together.
How to count your days in Spain
Count the day you arrive and the day you leave as full days, and add up every present day inside the current rolling 180-day window. The calculator above does this from your trip dates.
Staying in Spain longer than 90 days
- Digital Nomad Visa — for remote workers and freelancers with foreign clients.
- Non-Lucrative Visa (NLV) — for those who can support themselves without working in Spain.
- A national (type D) visa or residence permit for work, study or family.
