Visa/Residence Permit Process

Application candidates for studying in Lithuania may only apply to a single entrance visa of the D category. D category visas are only issued for a single year. This occurs by personally submitting all the necessary requirements to the Lithuanian embassy. The required documents are listed below:

 

– Passport (must be valid for an addition 3 months after the expiry of the entrance residency).

– D visa filled application form with a single photo.

– International health insurance (must be valid for the visa’s period).

– A validly confirmed reservation for an air ticket.

– A letter of mediation and admission from the university.

– 60 EUR application fee

 

The visa is issued with 2 weeks, but this only occurs after a positive decision is made from Lithuania’s Migration Department.

 

It is necessary to note that the visa and passport are only valid for Lithuania and other Schengen countries. Additionally, when travelling to Lithuania, you can only select transit airports that should be heading to Schengen countries.Through the 1st study year at the university, a foreign student should apply for a TRP, which is a temporary residence permit per year. The Migration Department requires close to 4 months for making a decision on issuing a TRP. After applying for a TRP, the following documentation will also be needed.

 

  1. Passport that should be valid for 3 months after the TRP’s expiration.

After applying for a TRP in Lithuania, students can also provide a statement from the bank, where it is stated that every student has 1800 euros for use per year, or 150 per month for application.
  4. A clearance statement from the police, providing that the individual was competent as an authority in their home country where the applicant was located before arrival to Lithuania from where they lived.
