Application Process and Timeline
Our application process is designed to be simple, fast, and stress-free for clients from the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. There are typically four main steps:
- Initial Consultation & Pre-Screening: We assess your eligibility based on your passport, criminal record status, and family situation. This ensures we only proceed with strong applications, maintaining our 100% success rate.
- Document Preparation & Translation: We provide clear instructions for the minimal documents required, such as your passport, photographs, and police clearance. Our team handles all translations, official forms, and liaison with Lithuanian authorities.
- Application Submission: Using our direct channels within government departments, we lodge your application securely and promptly. This bypasses delays often experienced with regular immigration firms.
- Approval & Residency Card Issuance: Once approved (typically within four weeks), you receive your residency card, granting full EU mobility rights.
Throughout the process, we provide real-time updates so you always know your application’s status. Most clients are surprised at how seamless and fast everything is compared to standard visa or migration programs elsewhere in Europe.
