Schengen, 90 in 180
A Schengen short-stay visa allows up to 90 days, in one stay or in several stays, in any 180 days. Paid work during a short stay may need a work authorisation. (Service-Public, verified 13 August 2026.) Check the rules for your passport.
The ENIM rule
In 2018 the Fédération des Industries Nautiques said a seafarer on a foreign-flag ship who lives in France must join ENIM, or an equivalent social regime. The duty starts on the day the stay in French territorial waters reaches 183 days in a rolling 12 months. Shipyard periods are excluded. Check the current rule for your yacht.
