How long is a Lithuanian student residence permit valid and how do I renew it?

A study-based temporary residence permit is tied to your enrolment at a Lithuanian higher education or vocational institution. It is granted for a limited period and must be renewed while your programme continues.

Renewal generally requires proof of continued enrolment, sufficient funds and valid health insurance. Apply for renewal before your current permit expires to avoid gaps, since a lapse can affect both your legal status and the residence time that counts toward future applications.
