Lithuanian residency grants you the right to live, work, and study in Lithuania, plus the ability to travel freely across all 27 Schengen countries without the usual 90-day limit. This means no more visa applications or time restrictions within Europe.
You can:
Establish a European base for personal or business purposes.
Enroll children in public or private schools across Lithuania.
Access Lithuania’s healthcare system and purchase EU-wide private insurance.
Open EU bank accounts and access European financial services.
Register companies and expand businesses within Lithuania or across the EU.
Residency also opens the door to future opportunities such as long-term residence permits and eventual EU citizenship if you meet standard residency requirements over time.
For many clients, this residency serves as a gateway to a European lifestyle, offering freedom, security, and flexibility unmatched by typical tourist visas or short-term stays.
