What happens at the border

1
Prepare your documents before departure
Check your passport expiry date — it must be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival. Book your return or onward flight. Save a screenshot of your booking confirmation and any accommodation details on your phone.
2
Arrive at Piarco International Airport (POS)
Most flights from Europe land at Piarco, the main airport near Port of Spain. Follow signs to 'Immigration' — the queue can be slow, especially during peak hours (afternoon and evening).
3
Present your passport and ticket at immigration
Hand over your passport and any requested documents. The officer may ask how long you're staying and where you're staying. Answer clearly. They'll stamp your passport with a 90-day entry.
4
Collect your luggage and exit
After clearing immigration, head to baggage claim, then customs. There's usually no customs declaration form for personal items. You're free to go.

Frequently asked questions

No, the visa-free entry is not extendable. You must leave before the 90 days are up. If you need to stay longer, you'd have to apply for a visa or leave and re-enter, but re-entry is at the discretion of immigration.
Only if you're arriving from a country with yellow fever risk. Lithuania is not a risk country, so you won't need it if you're flying directly from Europe. But if you've recently traveled to a yellow fever zone, bring your vaccination certificate.
You'll likely be denied boarding by your airline or refused entry at immigration. Renew your passport before traveling — it's not worth the risk.
The visa-free entry is for tourism and business visits only. Remote work for a foreign employer is technically not allowed, but enforcement is rare. For long-term digital nomad stays, check if a specific visa exists.
No, there is no arrival declaration required for Lithuanian passport holders. You just fill out the standard immigration card on the plane or at the airport.
The local currency is the Trinidad and Tobago dollar (TTD). US dollars are widely accepted at hotels, restaurants, and shops, but you'll get change in TTD. ATMs are available at the airport and in cities. Credit cards are accepted in most places.
Expect 20–45 minutes depending on the time of day. Afternoon and evening flights from Europe often arrive around the same time, so queues can build up. Have your documents ready to speed things up.
