You can acheive this using workflow rule to update feild.
1. Build a new workflow rule with the following criteria.
Object:
your custom object
2.Evaluate this rule:
select created
Rule Criteria:
when the Formula Evaluates to true
write true.
4. Update the date field "Valid date"
5. The formula value for the update should be:
TODAY() +90
6. Activate the rule
using formula TODAY()+90;
please refer below link for workflows

Instead of using date datatype you can do this using formula field like CreatedDate + 90 and give its return time as Date or Date/Time.If this helps then plz let me know.

The Rule should be evaluate "When the Record is Created".
The Rule Criteria should run "when the Formula Evaluates to true".
Write true in the formula editor (So that the rule fires always).
Save the Workflow Rule.
Add a Workflow Field Update , which will update the "Valid Date" field.
While Specifying new value for the field, "Use a formula to set the new value"
In the Formula Editor, Write: TODAY() + 90
Hope this Helps! Kindly mark as solution if it does.
