Visa & Entry

Irish passport holders enter Lithuania visa-free for unlimited stays as EU citizens. No fee, no advance application. A valid Irish passport is required. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area, so there is passport control on arrival, but EU citizens are processed quickly.

For stays beyond 3 months, register your place of residence at the local municipality (seniuna) within 7 working days. EU citizens must also register with the Migration Department to receive a right of temporary residence certificate, which is free. Bring proof of employment, self-employment, studies, or sufficient resources plus health insurance. A personal code (asmens kodas) is issued upon registration and is needed for banking, healthcare, and contracts.

Direct flights from Dublin to Vilnius run about 3 hours 10 minutes on Ryanair. Kaunas also has seasonal service. Lithuania uses the euro (adopted 2015), so no currency exchange needed. No vaccination requirements. English is widely spoken in Vilnius, especially among younger Lithuanians. Public transport in Vilnius runs on the Vilniaus Viesasis Transportas app, EUR 1 per ride with an electronic card, EUR 1.50 cash on board. Irish driving licenses are valid throughout the stay.

Getting to DUB

Dublin Bus route 747 (Airlink) runs from the city centre (O'Connell Street) to the airport in 30–50 minutes, costing €7 one-way or €12 return. DART rail does not serve the airport directly; the nearest station requires a bus connection. Ride-shares from the city centre typically cost €20–35 depending on traffic.

The M50 and M1 motorways feed into the airport; short-term parking in Terminal 1 or 2 costs from €4/30 min, while long-stay lots (P3/P4) are significantly cheaper for multi-day trips. Allow extra time during morning and evening rush hours on the M50.
