Brazilian passport holders can enter Lithuania without a visa for stays up to 90 days within any 180-day period. This covers tourism, business, and family visits. As of 2026, the rules haven't changed — just ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your entry date.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from Lithuania | Your passport needs at least 3 months of validity after your departure date from the Schengen area. Carry a copy of your passport photo page separately — some border officers ask to see it. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from the Schengen area | Immigration at Vilnius Airport checks for an onward ticket out of the Schengen zone. A bus or train ticket to a non-Schengen country works. Budget airlines at Kaunas also enforce this before boarding. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation letter | Have a printed or digital hotel confirmation for your entire stay. If staying with a friend, a notarized invitation letter from the host plus their ID copy covers you. Border officers ask for this at least half the time. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Bank statement or cash showing sufficient means | Carry a recent bank statement showing at least €50 per day of your stay. A credit card with a decent limit also works. Officers rarely ask for it, but when they do, they want to see it immediately. | Recommended |
90-day limit applies to all Schengen countries
Your 90-day visa-free stay is for the entire Schengen Area, not just Lithuania. If you've already spent time in France, Germany, or any other Schengen country, that time counts toward your 90-day limit. Track your days carefully.
Keep your boarding pass and accommodation proof handy
While not always checked, immigration officers at Vilnius and Kaunas airports may ask for proof of onward travel and where you're staying. Having a screenshot on your phone saves time and avoids issues.
What happens at the border
1
Prepare your documents
Before you travel, check your passport validity (6+ months from entry), save a copy of your return ticket and first night's accommodation on your phone, and consider getting travel insurance.
2
Arrive at Vilnius Airport or Kaunas Airport
You'll go through EU border control. Join the 'Non-EU' queue. Have your passport ready. The officer may ask about your stay duration, purpose, and where you're staying. Answer honestly and briefly.
3
Get your entry stamp
The officer will stamp your passport with the entry date. This stamp records your 90-day allowance. Keep the stamp visible — you'll need it for your departure check.
4
Exit Lithuania
When leaving, go through passport control again. They'll check your stamp to ensure you didn't overstay. No exit stamp is given for Schengen departures.

Frequently asked questions
No. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your entry date. If it expires sooner, you'll be denied boarding by the airline or entry at the border. Renew your passport before traveling.
No, but you cannot work for a Lithuanian employer or provide services to a Lithuanian company while on a visa-free stay. Remote work for a non-Lithuanian employer is generally allowed, but it's a grey area — best to check with the Lithuanian embassy if you're unsure.
No. The visa-free stay is not extendable for tourism or business. You must leave the Schengen Area after 90 days. Overstaying can result in fines, deportation, and a ban from re-entering the Schengen zone.
Overstaying is taken seriously. You may face a fine (typically €100–€500), deportation, and a re-entry ban of up to 5 years. Always track your days carefully.
No, for stays under 90 days there is no registration requirement. If you stay longer (e.g., with a visa), you would need to register with the Migration Department within 15 days.
Yes, you can. Border checks are common at land crossings. Have your passport ready. The same 90-day rule applies across the entire Schengen Area.
No, it's not mandatory for visa-free entry. However, it's strongly recommended because medical costs can be high. If you're asked by immigration, having insurance shows you're prepared.
