I want to know the difference between these three sentences:

1. Can I come in? - Do I have the ability to come in ?
2. May I come in? - Do I have the permission to come in ?
3. Should I come in? - Would it be right if I come in ?

Agree with pesfunk for first two.

the third one: Do you require me to come in?
