What lets you travel freely across 29 different European countries?

It’s Schengen, of course! So, you’re free to live your best European Summer!

Schengen is one of the world’s largest zones of free movement. It has reshaped how over 450 million Europeans live, work, and travel.

It’s a symbol of freedom, collaboration, and opportunity, turning the promise of Europe into an everyday reality!

Wherever you are in Europe, we hope you’re having a great summer.

@EUCommission The #schengen contract is dead.

If you want to play with the data: I uploaded a CSV with the basic data that should be clean and correct at https://codeberg.org/jwildeboer/SchengenData/src/branch/main/CSV/2025-08-04_SchengenExceptionsClean.csv

I will update the CSV when the Commission makes new data available, time permitting. Enjoy!

@EUCommission OK. My work has started. As you only give me a PDF, I am doing the manual work of converting it to a workable format, starting with a spreadsheet that can als be exported as CSV at https://www.icloud.com/numbers/0cbAcYt76Xr10LTauwV_9hCyA#Schengen As you can see, a lot of chaotic data that needs to be cleaned up, which I hope I can finish over the weekend. The first 50 entries are done. Only 423 to go :)

And now we can start looking for patterns 😊 For starters: Which countries filed the most Schengen exceptions and how many per year? Austria and Germany are on top. Norway, Finland, France, Denmark next.
