What Are The Schengen Area Rules For American Retirees In Europe? - Living in Europe as an American

Описание: What Are The Schengen Area Rules For American Retirees In Europe? Are you considering retiring in Europe or planning an extended stay? In this video, we explain the essential rules and options for Americans looking to live, work, or retire across European countries. We cover how the Schengen Area's visa-free travel works, including the ninety-day stay limit within any 180 days. You'll learn about the different types of long-stay visas and residence permits available, such as Portugal’s D7 visa, Spain’s Non-Lucrative visa, Italy’s Elective Residence visa, and Greece’s Financially Independent Person visa. We discuss the income requirements, health insurance necessities, and legal steps needed to establish residency. Additionally, we highlight important considerations like healthcare coverage—since U.S. Medicare does not extend abroad—and the importance of filing U.S. tax returns on your worldwide income. Starting in 2025, new travel regulations, including mandatory travel insurance and the European Travel Information and Authorization System, will impact American travelers. Plus, we share tips on how to extend your stay by visiting neighboring countries outside the Schengen Zone to reset your ninety-day clock. Proper planning around visas, finances, healthcare, and taxes can make your European retirement smooth and enjoyable. Watch this video for all the essential information to help you plan your next chapter abroad.
