• Long-term stay: Apply for a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP). TRPs are usually issued for 2 years and can be renewed.

For detailed information about the required documents for TRP or visa, please visit the Migration Department.

To obtain a national visa (D), you must apply at the Embassy of Lithuania.
To obtain a TRP, submit your application on MIGRIS and submit your documents at a VFS Global visa application center.
