I'm an American citizen visiting Denmark. As I understand it, I can stay in the Schengen for a period of 3 months. I arrived in Madrid on May 15th and came to Denmark on the 19th. Am I required to return to the States and come back if I wish to stay longer? In case I do need to return, do I have to go on the 15th or the 19th? I also have a Polish passport with me through which I can stay in the EU indefinitely. Is it possible to have my American passport "stamped out" somewhere and switch the Polish one, thereby allowing me to stay?

I am sure you can do it on any border. Just show your Polish passport, stamp it and that is it.
Hi. Thanks for your quick reply. I think generally, passports don't get stamped when traveling within the EU. Also, my main worry is that upon returning to the States, it will be evident from the US passport that I stayed longer than the allowed 3 months, despite being a Polish citizen. Is the US likely to care in that case, or is the 3 month rule imposed by the EU?
That is exactly the reason why you need to ask them to have your Polish passport stamped.I think generally, passports don't get stamped when traveling within the EU.
By EU. What US cares for is that US passport does not expire during your travel abroad.Also, my main worry is that upon returning to the States, it will be evident from the US passport that I stayed longer than the allowed 3 months, despite being a Polish citizen. Is the US likely to care in that case, or is the 3 month rule imposed by the EU? .
