What these limits mean when you're moving around

Days in any rolling window
On any day, the days you've spent there in the window up to that day must stay under the limit. Older days drop out as the window moves forward, so your days left change as you travel. Some countries count the period from your first entry instead; the notes say when.
Days per visit
Each stay is counted from the day you arrive until the day you leave. The notes list any extra conditions, such as how often you can enter.

How days are counted. Visa365 counts any part of a day as a full day, so the day you travel counts for both countries. That way it never counts fewer days than you actually spent somewhere. Official rules can count differently, so check the sources below.

Tracking Brazil with Visa365

For the most common stay limit here, you'd add a rolling limit of 90 days in any 180 and a rolling limit of 180 days in any 366. In the app's entry rules for Brazil, pick your passport and one tap fills in the limit that applies to you. Visa365 tracks both side by side, each with its own days left and leave-by date. It logs your days there automatically in the background, even offline.
