US citizens can currently visit most European countries (Schengen Area) visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period for tourism or business. Starting in late 2026, U.S. citizens must obtain an ETIAS travel authorization (European Travel Information and Authorization System) online before traveling.

Key Requirements & Future Changes

• ETIAS Application: The application is online, costs €20 (roughly $8–$24), and is generally valid for three years or until the passport expires.
• Long-Term Stays: Stays longer than 90 days still require a specific national visa from the country where you will spend most of your time.
• Entry Requirements: You may be required to show proof of return flights, travel health insurance, and sufficient funds at border control.

• Current (Pre-2026): No visa is required for short stays, but your passport must be valid for at least three months beyond your planned departure date.
• Future (Starting Late 2026): The ETIAS authorization will be mandatory for visiting 30+ European countries. It is not a visa but a pre-screening, similar to the U.S. ESTA.

Where to Apply

• ETIAS: When it goes live, use the official ETIAS website or mobile app to avoid extra fees from third-party sites.
• Visa/Residence Permits: Visit the embassy or consulate of the specific European country you plan to visit for stays exceeding 90 days.
