Entry rules, ETIAS, EES and the 90/180 count
Entry rules, ETIAS, EES and the 90/180 count: the EU's biometric entry-exit system and the ETIAS authorisation are changing how everyone enters and leaves…
This launch guide maps the topic, the source base and the practical questions. Check the linked official authority before acting on a rule, deadline, price or safety requirement.
What this guide covers
The EU's biometric entry-exit system and the ETIAS authorisation are changing how everyone enters and leaves, and the official pages are thin in every language here. One page per nationality group with the visa-free days, the passport validity rule, whether ETIAS is needed and what it costs, plus a page per system explaining what EES actually does at the booth, and a 90/180 counter that shows the arithmetic rather than hiding it. A focused example is "the 90/180 rule - counted day by day, with worked examples".
How to use it
Use Entry rules, ETIAS, EES and the 90/180 count to compare stable place facts and official facilities. Live opening, access and disruption information should always be confirmed with the operator before travel.
The page keeps the main question, its evidence base and its limits together in one canonical place. That makes it useful as a quick orientation and avoids splitting a broad subject into shallow pages before each narrower answer has enough verified material of its own.
Search vocabulary in four languages

Evidence and provenance
The evidence map below records the primary, official or openly licensed material chosen for this guide. It is deliberately visible so a reader can tell the difference between a rule published by an authority, a measured dataset and an editorial explanation.
Source: Regulation (EU) 2018/1240 (ETIAS), Regulation (EU) 2017/2226 (EES) and the Schengen Borders Code Regulation (EU) 2016/399, all EUR-Lex (public); the counter computed from the rule text. · checked 2026-09-09
Source names are preserved even where an authority changes its web address. No figure is added to this launch page unless it is already present in the cited source description or can be computed from a named dataset.
Scope and boundaries
This guide owns the explanatory layer for the topic. Personal decisions, diagnoses, legal determinations and live availability remain with the relevant professional or official service.
