The clock does not reset, ever, forget all about resetting. It is a continually moving period of 180 days, chugging along a day at a time. 

180 days before 28th September (the day you plan to return to the UK) is April 1st.  Since April 1st you have spent 7 days in May, 30 in June and 27 in July. Then you want to spend 23 days in September which all add up to 87 so you are fine. Forget January and February, they are more than 18...

...0 days away from the end of your September visit.

For your current visit, 180 days before you return to the UK on 27th July is 28th January so you count all the days you have been in the Schengen zone during this period. I will assume your January stay was completed before 28th January so can be forgotten about. So, 9 days in February, 7 days in May, 30 in June and 27 days in July so a total of 73 days within this particular 180 day period so again, all OK.

The calculator does work. https://www.visa-calculator.com/ When I put in your May to July dates and then the September ones it says 87 days in total.




Thank you Cheryl you explained it better than the apps!!!

Get an app or use a calculator- you are making good a simple rule unnecessarily complicated.

Thought we had this cracked but obviously not, help!! We came out for 6 days in January, 9 days in February, then came out 25th May until 27th July and intend to come back 6th September to 28th September.  As we were out of Spain March, April and most of May (over 90 days), we thought the cl...

Not sure what you are inputting in the apps, I have links to a couple of them and they come back with the same results each time

I use the Schengen Calculator Pro , free app with no adverts. Simply enter the dates and location of you holidays and it gives you days remaining of your 90 days and updates itself as the calender advances and holidays drop out the 180 period . Some and reliable
