What these limits mean when you're moving around
- 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 Taiwan with Visa365
For the most common stay limit here, you'd add a days-per-visit limit of 90 days. In the app's entry rules for Taiwan, pick your passport and one tap fills in the limit that applies to you. Visa365 shows your days left and leave-by date, and alerts you at the days-left counts you choose. It logs your days there automatically in the background, even offline.
