Before you go
- A valid passport, and in many cases a national ID card, is enough. Airlines set their own document rules, so check before you fly.
- You can stay and move freely, but a stay of more than three months can need registration with the local authorities.
- Iceland is in the Schengen Area, so the days you spend there count towards one shared allowance of 90 days in any 180-day window across 29 countries. See the Schengen 90/180 rule explained.
- The EU has been preparing ETIAS, an online travel authorisation for visa-exempt visitors to Schengen countries. Check whether it applies on your travel date.
