Related questions

Do I count both the arrival and departure days for a visa?

In many systems, including Schengen and US physical presence checks, any part of a day spent in the country counts. Tick Include the end date when both boundary days count.

Should I include weekends when counting days for citizenship?

Yes, immigration and residency rules count calendar days, not working days. Keep Only working days unticked.

Can this tool track multiple trips at once?

No, the calculator counts one date range at a time. Calculate each trip separately and sum the day counts yourself.
