BEFORE APPLYING:
Step 1: Register a business
Prior to beginning all the initial process, it is essential that you duly register a firm, or purchase an already running and suitably registered business in the Baltic country. Get in touch with us for more information.

Step 2: Provide jobs
Post becoming the owner of the firm, you will have to provide work for, on a full time basis, to not less than three citizens of the nation, or overseas citizens who stay in the nation on a permanent basis. It is vital that the business is running during the previous six months before presenting a petition form for TRP is in operation. Hence buying a running business may be the only appropriate solution for applicants who are not willing to wait.

Step 3: Await Validation
In the wake of certificates/papers submission on the basis of business registration, the decision on temporary residence permit that will be issued for one year, will be taken, and you will be able to learn about a decision inside just four months or so. The Lithuania Migration Body will issue a TRV for one-year validation on the grounds of business. At the end of that period (not less than two months prior to the conclusion of the present existing TRV) you are required to consult the nation’s migration department, for the object of either renewal or extension of the Residence Permit.

Through the choice, the submission is prepared and submitted at the local Lithuanian Embassy, which afterwards forwards the petition to the Vilnius, Lithuania based Immigration Office. The latter reverts with its decision to the Embassy, and the former then informs the candidate about the decision. In case the biometric facilities are not obtainable at the Local Embassy, the candidate could be required to move to Vilnius to obtain the TRP Card.
