Lithuania — Schengen member · Embassy New Delhi · MIGRIS portal is the form
All India applications are decided by the Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania, New Delhi through VFS Lithuania centres. The Lithuanian government runs its own electronic immigration portal at migracija.lt/en — every applicant creates a MIGRIS login, picks their nationality, and fills the Schengen visa form there. The standard VFS application form does not work for Lithuania. For business / sponsored visits, the Lithuanian host also submits a MIGRIS invitation letter that the applicant references in their file.
migracija.lt/en and create your MIGRIS login.(1) Affidavits are NOT accepted as evidence by the Embassy of Lithuania — substituting an affidavit for a proper bank certificate, ITR, or property registry will get the file rejected. (2) Family members of Lithuanian citizens pay €0 visa fee — but you need the marriage / birth certificate notarised AND an extract from the Lithuanian population register (Gyventojų registras). Indian-citizen marriage certificate alone is not enough.
Note: SureshotVisa handles the 10 Lithuania Schengen Short-Stay (Type C) categories listed below — Tourism, Business, Study/Internship, Visiting Family/Friends, Cultural & Sports, Official Delegations, Medical Treatment, Seafarer (informational), Airport Transit, and Family Members of EU/EEA/CH citizens — end-to-end through VFS. Long-Stay D visas (work / study / residence permit) are not on this site yet; ask us by phone if you need one and we'll quote separately.
An Airport Transit Visa is required to transit through the international transit areas of Schengen Member State airports. Suitable for travellers transiting through Vilnius (VNO) airport en route to a third country. IMPORTANT: this visa is required for nationals of certain countries (Annex IV — Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Syria, etc.). Indian passport holders are NOT on Annex IV — for most India-origin transits through Vilnius, an Airport Transit Visa is NOT required. Verify your specific case with us before applying.
What it costs
Paid directly to Lithuania / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per VFS Global, last verified 4 May 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
Visa fees are set by the Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania in INR and are non-refundable in case of refusal. The applicable INR fee tracks the current EUR / INR exchange rate and may change without notice. All VFS service charges are inclusive of CGST 9% + SGST 9%. Family members of EU/EEA/CH citizens applying under Directive 2004/38/EC pay zero visa fee — but the VFS service charge still applies. Affidavits will not be considered as documents of evidence by the Embassy of Lithuania.
Flights · Hotels · Insurance · Itinerary
Lithuania applies the Schengen rules, so travel insurance is not a nice-to-have — it is a legal condition of the visa.
2 of 4 are compulsory for Lithuania
Where people slip: Flying into one city and out of another with nothing showing how you travel between them. Officers read the whole route, and an unexplained gap reads as a plan that does not hold together.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Free-cancellation bookings are accepted, but if the entire file is free-cancellation the officer sees a trip nobody has committed to. Some of it should be real spend.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Buying cover for the adults and forgetting the children. Every traveller needs their own EUR 30,000, infants included — a real refusal we have seen on a family of four.
What a Schengen policy must showWhere people slip: Spending more nights in another Schengen country than in Lithuania. That gets a file rejected before it is even assessed.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your Lithuania file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

7 steps from intake to approval — never as linear as government sites pretend.
Confirm Lithuania is your main Schengen destination
Apply via Lithuania if your itinerary spends most time (or has its main purpose) there. If splitting time evenly between Schengen states, apply through the country of first entry.
Create a MIGRIS login at migracija.lt/en
Open the Lithuanian government's electronic immigration portal at migracija.lt/en, pick India from the nationality list, then select the Schengen visa application form. Fill, print, sign. This is the only application form that works — generic VFS forms get rejected at counter.
Get a MIGRIS invitation letter (where required)
For Business / Visiting Family-Friends (when relying on an invitation) / Cultural-Sports / Medical Treatment / Seafarer categories, the Lithuanian host files the invitation letter through MIGRIS. You reference it in your application — no hand-signed letter needed.
Book your VFS appointment online
After completing the MIGRIS form, book at visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/ltu/. Pay VFS service charge in cash / card / UPI / DD at the centre.
Submit at VFS in person + biometrics
Attend with your printed MIGRIS form, all documents, and two ICAO-compliant photos. Pay the visa fee. Biometrics are captured at the centre. Affidavits are NOT accepted as evidence.
Wait for the decision (15 calendar days standard)
Embassy of the Republic of Lithuania, New Delhi decides. Up to 30 days if additional information / interview requested. Non-Delhi VFS centres add 2–3 days postal transit. Track via VFS website.
Collect your passport from VFS
Once notified, collect from VFS or use courier. Verify visa validity dates, entry type, and stay duration before leaving the counter.
Biometrics and the visit to the visa centre are yours to attend in person — no consultancy can do those for you. How we work

Frequently asked
Typically NO. India is not on the EU's Annex IV list of nationalities that require an Airport Transit Visa for Schengen. Most Indian travellers transiting through Vilnius en route to a third country do not need this visa. Call us to confirm your specific case before applying — applying unnecessarily wastes the fee and the appointment.
Edge cases: if your journey involves leaving the international transit area (collecting bags, changing terminals beyond airside transit), or if individual EU member states have added India to a temporary transit-visa requirement. These cases are rare. Always verify with us first.
Yes — but our first job is verifying you actually need this visa. Most Indian transit cases don't. Call us with your itinerary and we'll confirm in 5 minutes whether you need to apply.

Your fee, in one glance
Government, VFS, insurance, ticket and hotel costs are separate and charged at cost. Read what each item means, in full.
Before you file
Filed on a guessed checklist, the government fee is gone on a refusal and the refusal follows every future application. Filed after a consultant at our licensed firm has read the papers against each other, the file answers the officer's questions before they are asked. Same Lithuania rules, different outcome. How we do that is written once, in full, on the method page rather than repeated here.
