How long is the Business Visa valid and how long can I stay?

Can I extend my Business Visa once I'm in Lithuania?
Extension policies vary. Contact the Lithuania immigration authority within the country to inquire about extending your stay.
What happens if my application is denied?
Refusals are issued in writing with a reason. Strengthen the weak point and submit a fresh application, or use the formal appeal channel; the original fee is not refunded.
Do I need travel insurance?
Yes. As a Schengen destination, Lithuania requires travel medical insurance with a minimum of €30,000 in coverage, valid across all Schengen states for the entire stay.
Can I work on a Business Visa?
Business visas allow meetings, conferences, and negotiations, but not direct employment with a Lithuania entity. For employment, apply for a work visa.
What is the difference between work visa and business visa?
Business visas are for short-term visits (meetings, trade fairs, contract signing) and don't allow paid employment. Work visas are for employed positions on a contract, longer-term.
Do I need an invitation letter from a Lithuania company?
Usually yes. Official letter on host company letterhead specifying visit purpose, duration, and sponsor, attached to your application.
How long can I stay per visit?
Typically 30-90 days per visit. The visa may be single-entry or multi-entry with 6-month to 5-year validity.

Yes. Meetings, negotiations, attending trade shows, signing agreements all fall under business visa scope. Actual labor or operating a workshop needs a work visa.
