# About EESQueue

EESQueue is a free, independent tool to help non-EU travellers navigate the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) — count Schengen days, check airport queues, and understand what happens at the border.

## What we cover

We track EES rollout status and queue data for 128 Schengen airports, run a client-side [90/180 calculator](https://eesqueue.com/schengen-calculator), and publish plain-English guides on [what EES is](https://eesqueue.com/what-is-ees), [how it differs from ETIAS](https://eesqueue.com/ees-vs-etias), the [official app](https://eesqueue.com/ees-app), [land and sea borders](https://eesqueue.com/ees-land-borders), and [who it applies to](https://eesqueue.com/do-i-need-ees).

## How we source data & our methodology

- **Rollout status, kiosk counts and documented peaks** are curated from airport operators, border authorities and press reporting, with a "last verified" date on each airport page.

- **Live wait times** are crowd-sourced from travellers. We only show a number when there's a trustworthy basis — recent validated reports (*live*) or a same-time-of-day average (*typical*). When there isn't, we show "—" rather than inventing a figure.

- **The 90/180 calculator** runs entirely in your browser; your travel dates are never uploaded.

## Independence & disclosure

EESQueue is independent and **not affiliated with the European Union, eu-LISA, Frontex, or any border authority**. It's part of a small family of travel tools alongside [FlightQueue](https://flightqueue.com) (airport delays and live queues) and [ImmigrationQueue](https://immigrationqueue.com) (visa and immigration processing) — we share crowd-sourced queue data with FlightQueue.

## Important

Everything here is for planning only and can change quickly. Always verify current rules and requirements with your airport, your travel operator, and the [official EU EES page](https://travel-europe.europa.eu/ees_en) before you travel. EES became fully operational on 10 April 2026.

## Corrections

Spotted something out of date or wrong? EES is moving fast and we update regularly — the fastest way to improve the queue data is to [report a wait you've seen](https://eesqueue.com/ees-wait-times).
