Can a spouse or child who comes through Lithuanian family reunification work?

Family members who receive a residence permit on the basis of reunification normally gain access to the Lithuanian labour market. They can usually take up employment without applying for a separate work permit and may change employer freely.

This gives reunited spouses and adult family members real flexibility to support the household. Minor children remain subject to schooling and child-labour rules, and you should confirm any conditions noted on the specific permit issued.
