Check requirements for your passport
Requirements differ by nationality. Select your passport above, or scan the full table below.
How long you can stay
90 days in any rolling 180-day period
90 days in any rolling 180-day period, counted across the whole Schengen Area rather than per country. The day you arrive counts as the first day and the day you leave counts as the last. Leaving and coming back does not reset the allowance: on any given day, days already spent anywhere in the area during the preceding 180 still count against the 90.
- Leaving and re-entering does not start a fresh allowance.
- The day you arrive counts as a full day.
- The day you leave counts as a full day.
This limit is the one set for travellers who need permission to enter. It does not cap a stay you make under freedom of movement.

Tips & warnings
The UK FCDO says all border crossing points on the land border between Finland and Russia will remain closed until further notice; the Government of Canada says Finnish authorities have closed all land border crossings with Russia.
If you arrive at a Schengen border crossing point for the first time since the EES started, passport control officers will take a photo of your face and/or scan your fingerprints. The EU says the ETIAS travel authorisation for visa-exempt travellers is currently not in operation.
Canada's travel advice says daylight hours are very short in the winter, so you will need to drive in darkness for most of the day, and that icy road conditions are common and may cause road closures, particularly in northern areas. It also says winter tires are mandatory between November 1 and March 31.
Finland's Foreign Ministry says that if you do not need a visa, you can stay in Finland or in the territory of other Schengen states for ninety days in any 180-day period. The UK government tells British travellers that visits to Schengen countries within the previous 180 days count towards the 90 days.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a visa for Finland?
EU citizens can travel to Finland with a valid passport or national ID card. Nationals of the countries on the EU's visa-exempt list (Annex II of Regulation 2018/1806), which includes the United States, are exempt from the visa requirement for stays of no more than 90 days in any 180-day period. The Schengen states have jointly agreed which countries' citizens must present a visa; the Visa Code sets the visa fee at EUR 90.
Does time in Finland count against my Schengen 90-day limit?
Yes. Finland's Foreign Ministry says that if you do not need a visa, you can stay in Finland or in the territory of other Schengen states for ninety days in any 180-day period.
Can I cross between Finland and Russia by land?
The UK FCDO says all border crossing points on the land border between Finland and Russia will remain closed until further notice, and the Government of Canada says Finnish authorities have closed all land border crossings with Russia.
Do I need ETIAS to visit Finland?
Not yet. The EU says ETIAS, the new travel authorisation for visa-exempt travellers to enter 30 European countries including Finland, is currently not in operation and no applications are being collected, and that it will announce the start date several months before launch. The ETIAS website lists a EUR 20 application fee.
