Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid on the day of entry | Your Lithuanian passport needs to be valid for your entire stay in Luxembourg. As a Schengen member, Luxembourg does not enforce the 6-month validity rule — your passport just needs to cover the dates you are in the country. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Schengen area | Border officers at Luxembourg airport may ask for a return or onward ticket showing you leave the Schengen zone within 90 days. Budget airlines flying into Luxembourg check this before boarding. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host in Luxembourg ready. Immigration rarely asks for it, but having a booking printed or on your phone avoids delays. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Bank statement or cash | Carry a recent bank statement or enough cash/card limit to cover your stay. Luxembourg does not publish a fixed minimum, but €50–€100 per day is a safe benchmark if questioned. | Recommended |
Schengen Area rules apply
Luxembourg is part of the Schengen Area. Your 90-day visa-free stay counts across all 27 Schengen countries. If you've already spent time in France, Germany, or other Schengen states, that time counts toward your 90-day limit.
EU citizen privileges
As a Lithuanian passport holder, you have the right to live, work, and study in Luxembourg without a visa. For stays over 90 days, you just need to register with the local commune (town hall) — no visa required.
What happens at the border
1
Prepare your documents
Before you travel, check your passport validity (6+ months beyond entry), print or save your return ticket, accommodation booking, and travel insurance. Keep them in a folder on your phone or in your carry-on.
2
Arrive at Luxembourg Airport (LUX)
Luxembourg Airport has a single terminal. After landing, follow signs to 'Arrivals' and then 'EU/EEA Passports' queue. Since Lithuania is in the EU, you'll use the EU lane.
3
Present your passport
Hand over your passport to the border officer. They may ask: purpose of visit, length of stay, where you're staying. Answer honestly and briefly. They rarely ask for supporting documents, but have them ready.
4
Receive entry stamp
The officer will stamp your passport with the entry date. This stamp is your proof of legal entry. Keep your passport safe during your stay.

You may be denied boarding by your airline or refused entry by Luxembourg border police. Renew your passport before traveling. The 6-month validity is calculated from your entry date, not your departure date.
