Description
To enter Lithuania, it is necessary to apply for the appropriate visa type based on the purpose of your visit. The following categories outline the specific visa requirements:
- Family members of Lithuanian or EU citizens (including EEA and Switzerland) who do not reside in their home country in accordance with EU directive 2004/38.
For family members of EU/EEA/EFTA citizens, please refer to the relevant link for the supporting documents that need to be provided in the download section.
- Other applicants.
It is important to note that when providing proof of relation to an EEA/EU or Swiss national, original marriage or birth certificates must be presented. If these documents are not in English or Lithuanian, a certified translation by a translator in the UK is required. Additionally, if the marriage or birth certificate is not issued in an EU or EEA Member State or the Swiss Confederation, it must be legalized. Document authentication, also known as legalisation, and Apostille certification are processes that verify the signature and seal of a document. Traditionally, this verification is performed by a Consular Officer to ensure the legal validity of documents drawn up in one country in another.
Documents Required
Applications from family members of EU/EEA/EFTA citizens are given utmost priority and are processed free of charge.
If you are planning to travel to Lithuania with or join an EU/EEA/EFTA citizen, the following documents must be provided:
- Original Marriage Certificate, Partnership Certificate, or Birth Certificate (for children under the age of 21) along with a copy. If the certificate was not issued in the United Kingdom or any other EU country, it must be translated into Lithuanian or English.
Please note that in exceptional cases, the Consular Officer may request authentication, legalization, or an Apostille stamp for these certificates.
- Original and copy of the passport or ID card of the EU/EEA/EFTA spouse/partner/parent.
- Proof of joint travel to Lithuania or evidence of your intention to join the EU/EEA/EFTA citizen who is already in Lithuania. If you are unable to provide these documents, please apply under the category of Family members of EU/EEA/EFTA citizens who are not traveling together with an EU/EEA/EFTA citizen.
- The address where you will be staying in Lithuania can be specified in the Application form.
