Yes. Health insurance is mandatory in order to obtain a residence permit. To meet the Migration Department’s requirements, you can choose either to commit to paying monthly compulsory health insurance (PSD) contributions in Lithuania or to purchase a separate 12-month private health insurance policy.
Once you have obtained a temporary residence permit and are making regular monthly compulsory insurance payments, you gain access to Lithuania’s high-quality and affordable public healthcare system. You may also choose to purchase additional private insurance that is valid throughout the European Union. We often assist clients in finding suitable insurance plans after obtaining their residence permit as part of our post-approval support services.
