Hi - I am wondering if anyone has overstayed their tourist visa while in Portugal? I am looking to go to Lisbon but I don’t meet the digital nomad visa requirements (10k in the bank, plus there’s a huge wait).

Do borders check how long you’ve stayed? Has anyone got a fine? Which countries are strict and which are not?

I stayed in Schengen longer than 90 via one of the bilateral treaty countries (USA) and I got the third degree both when leaving and my first time returning. It all worked out because I was in the right and had done my research, but they do not fuck around.

What's the rule for Americans?

Different countries have different rules. and not just the US have bilateral agreements.

Some EU countries have a 180 day visa free regimes (For US passport holders), and only if you stay within them, though if they check is a different story.
