All about temporary protection in Lithuania for Ukrainians
Lithuania remains one of the European Union countries where Ukrainians can relatively quickly obtain legal residence, access to work, a certain amount of medical services, education for children, and basic social support. That is why the topic of temporary protection in Lithuania for Ukrainians remains relevant not only for those who are just leaving Ukraine, but also for those who already live in the country and want to properly extend their documents, change their status, or understand their rights. At the same time, due to the large number of outdated publications, Ukrainians often confuse short-term visa-free entry to Lithuania, temporary protection, temporary residence permit and other grounds for legal stay. Because of this, one and the same person can simultaneously search for the rules of entry, the conditions for obtaining protection, and the procedure for extending documents. In this article, we will discuss these topics correctly: separately we will explain whether a visa is needed, separately – how temporary protection works, and separately – what exactly needs to be done after arriving in Lithuania. Updated: as of 04/22/2026. The material was prepared using official EU and Lithuanian sources, including Council of the EU , MIGRIS / E-permit , Migration Department of Lithuania , UNHCR Lithuania and UNHCR Lithuania: Health services . Before submitting documents or traveling to Lithuania, it is worth checking official updates again, as the procedure for processing documents and the order of extension may change.
