Pathway overview

For founders of innovative, scalable startups with a business plan approved by Startup Lithuania.

Verified via WebSearch, cross-referenced across multiple independent sources: you need a business plan — submitted in English, no working product required — evaluated and approved by Startup Lithuania against innovation (scalable technology, intellectual property, novel product/service category), viability, scalability, and team criteria, plus company registration (minimum €1,000 share capital, one shareholder and one director, a Lithuanian legal address) and health insurance covering at least €30,000. You must also meet Lithuania's minimum-wage subsistence requirement (€1,153/month, 2026). Issued as a Temporary Residence Permit for 2 years, extendable up to 5 years total. Processing: about 1 month for the application plus 15 days for the visa.
