About this Visa

This visa lets you stay in Lithuania for medical treatment or rehabilitation for up to one year. You get it if a Lithuanian hospital says you need to come for treatment. You can extend your stay after one year by switching to a different permit. This visa is for people needing medical care, not for work or tourism. If you want to work while you're here, you need a separate work permit. You pay for your own doctor visits—the government won't cover them. This is a long-stay visa, different from short tourist visas. You apply online before traveling.
