Everything You Need to Know

Whether you’re a first-time applicant or exploring options for your family, you’ll find clarity here.

Residency Benefits and Rights

Residency is the first step toward EU citizenship, requiring long-term residence and integration.

Yes, Lithuanian residency can be the first step toward EU citizenship, but it requires:

    • Continuous legal residence over several years (usually 10 years for Lithuania).
  • Basic integration criteria such as language learning and civic knowledge tests at the citizenship stage.

Many clients use residency to explore European life first, then consider long-term settlement or naturalization if they wish. Our team advises on pathways to permanent residency and citizenship once initial residency is secured.

After Residency – Renewal and Citizenship

Yes, your initial temporary residency is the foundational first step on the pathway to EU citizenship. We outline the clear, time-based requirements: achieving permanent residency after five years of continuous legal stay, and the option to apply for full Lithuanian (and therefore EU) citizenship after ten years, subject to basic integration tests.

Yes. Lithuanian residency can be the first step toward permanent residence or EU citizenship if you choose long-term settlement.

    • Permanent residence typically requires five years of continuous legal stay.
  • Lithuanian citizenship generally requires ten years, plus basic language and civic knowledge tests at the naturalization stage.

Many clients use residency first to explore Europe and then decide whether to pursue permanent settlement later. Our team advises on these pathways when clients are ready, ensuring a smooth transition from temporary residency to long-term or even citizenship status.
