The Entry/Exit System (EES) is the EU digital border system intended to register entry and exit events for many non-EU travellers at the external borders of participating European countries. Travellers should use official EU sources for official EES information and stay checks.
The EU’s official EES stay-check tool can help travellers check remaining authorised stay using EES information. This website does not access EES records. It is an independent planning calculator for testing trip dates, comparing travel windows, estimating re-entry options and understanding the 90/180-day rule before you travel.
Which tool should you use?
Use the EU Travel to Europe EES stay-check tool for official information based on EES data where available.
Use this website to test what-if scenarios, compare possible trips, estimate re-entry dates and understand your rolling 180-day window before booking.
What EES is expected to do
- Digitally register entry and exit events.
- Reduce reliance on manual passport stamps.
- Support border authorities in checking stay history.
- Make short-stay compliance tracking more data-driven.
Common misconception
EES does not replace the 90/180 rule. It is a border-management system. Travellers still need to respect stay limits, visa conditions and other applicable requirements.
Practical advice
Keep your own records, use the official EU EES stay-check tool when you need an official check, and use independent planning tools only as educational estimates before booking or changing travel plans.
