A tool to keep count
The 183-day counter
Spain counts your days per calendar year, and a winter falls across two of them. Add your stays and see where each year lands.
The counter
Add your stays, see each year.
The arrival day and the leaving day both count. The line is 183 days in one calendar year.
Add each stay in Spain, the day you arrive and the day you leave. Your dates stay in this browser. Nothing is sent to us.

Your days in Spain, year by year, will show here.
This counts days in Spain only, and counts the day you arrive and the day you leave, which is the cautious way. Spain has other tests besides days, and Ireland counts your days in Ireland its own way. It's a tool to keep track, not tax advice. The rules in full are in the 183-day guide and in our Wintering in Spain pack.
