The 90/180 Rule and Italy
Italy is one of the most popular Schengen destinations. Days in Rome, Milan, Florence, or Venice all count toward your 90-day limit.
The Schengen Area treats all 27 member countries as a single zone. Whether you enter at Rome airport or travel overland from a neighbouring country, every day counts toward the same rolling 90-day limit.
Maximum stay in any 180-day rolling window across all Schengen countries including Italy.
The 180 days are always counted backwards from today, not from your entry date or the start of the year.
Both the day you enter and the day you exit Italy each count as a full Schengen day.
