Foreigners who plan to live or work in Lithuania meet Lithuanian migration law with their first application, whether it is a visa, a residence permit or e-resident status. Lamigra lawyers help to prepare the documents for a temporary residence permit on a work or business basis, including the EU Blue Card, and prepare the business plan a business-based application needs. At the client’s request, Lamigra also helps to prepare documents for a change of employer (job function).
Lithuanian migration law – the branch of law that sets the rules for foreigners’ legal entry into and exit from Lithuania, their stay and residence, and their legal status.
Lithuanian migration law: FAQ
What does an immigration lawyer do for a foreigner in Lithuania?
Lamigra’s immigration lawyers help to prepare a foreigner’s application documents to meet the requirements of the law and, for a business-based permit, also prepare the business plan. The Migration Department makes the decision on the permit, so Lamigra lawyers do not guarantee a positive outcome.
What happens if my residence permit application is refused?
A refused residence permit application can still be discussed with Lamigra lawyers, who consult on migration law after a negative decision as well. The Migration Department may refuse a permit on the grounds set in Article 35 of the Law on the Legal Status of Aliens, including:
- false data or forged documents;
- reasonable grounds to believe that a marriage or company is fictitious;
- insufficient means of subsistence;
- a threat to state security or public order.
Where there are grounds to appeal a migration decision, Lamigra’s lawyers can assist and represent clients before the relevant authorities.
Can you set up my company and prepare my residence permit documents?
Yes, Lamigra sets up companies in Lithuania and helps to prepare both the business plan and the documents for a temporary residence permit on a business basis. A business-based permit requires the company to have carried out activity under its business plan for at least the last 6 months before the application, with equity (or assets, for companies other than public or private limited liability companies) of at least 28 000 €, of which at least 14 000 € consists of funds or other assets invested by the foreigner. The company must also employ two full-time citizens of Lithuania, another EU or EFTA state or foreigners permanently resident in Lithuania whose combined monthly salary is at least twice the most recently published calendar year’s average gross monthly salary. The service is described on the company formation in Lithuania page.
