7 or 14 Days in the first year?

[loayabiad]

Hello, after getting the residency card, how many days should one spend? I read somewhere that it has to be a minimum of 7 days in the first year, and 14 by the end of the second(so you can do 14 in the first year). The lawyer said 14 in the first two years, so you can actually stay zero days during the first year and all the 14 days during the second. Also, when does the year start? From the date written on the residency card?

Hi - there is already an entire thread dedicated to this. Please see:

14-Day Requirements: Proofs

According to the regulations, which haven’t been updated, you must stay 7 days in the 1st year, and 14 days in years 2-3. Safest is probably just 7 days every year. If you want to do 14 days you can do it exactly around your card’s 1 year anniversary so you have 7 days in 1st year and 7 days in 2nd year.
