Lithuania
Use our advice together with your own research from reputable sources to plan your trip.
Entry and Exit
Singaporeans can visit Lithuania for up to 90 days within 180 days from the date of initial entry within the Schengen region without a visa, provided no employment is pursued.
Lithuania is part of the Schengen Area. Entry into any of the European countries in the Schengen Area for short-term tourism, a business trip, or in transit to a non-Schengen destination, requires a minimum three months’ passport validity beyond the intended date of departure. Singaporeans should have their passports with them when crossing borders, even within the Schengen Area.
As immigration requirements can change at short notice, travellers are advised to contact their travel agent, the Consulate-General of Lithuania in Singapore or the Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania in Tokyo (accredited to Singapore; https://jp.mfa.lt/jp/en/) for the latest information.
Safety and Security
The crime rate is low, but petty crime, including pickpocketing, does still occur. Exercise caution and do not leave your personal belongings unattended. Car and bicycle theft may also be a concern in certain areas.
Roads are generally in good condition. However, risks are higher on country roads due to the presence of horse-drawn carts, bicycles, and cars without tail-lights or reflectors.
Local Laws
Drug offences carry heavy penalties, including lengthy prison sentences and large fines. Pack your own luggage and do not accept ‘gifts’ from strangers or new acquaintances.
Snow tyres are mandatory during the winter months of November to April. Speed limits are generally 50km/h in towns, 90km/h on country roads and 110km/h on highways. Comply with local regulations. If in doubt, seek the advice of the car rental company or the local authorities.
The export of certain religious materials and antiques is prohibited. Visitors should check with the local authorities for more information before purchase.
Additional Information
Lithuania can be extremely cold and can experience hazardous weather conditions in the winter months. Temperatures can drop to below -25 degrees Celsius. Monitor the temperature and weather forecasts regularly. Visitors visiting Lithuania in the winter should prepare and dress adequately for the cold. Purchase comprehensive travel insurance before departure.
