🇫🇷 Does a French need a visa for Lithuania 🇱🇹?

Visa-free

No. French passport holders can visit Lithuania without a visa; the border officer decides how long you may stay.

Checked against Wikipedia's list of visa requirements for French citizens on 2026-10-04. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Lithuania or its official government website before you travel.

Lithuania is in the Schengen Area: the visa-free days count across all 29 Schengen countries together, within any 180-day period — not per country.

What this means for your trip

Visa-free entry lets you arrive with a valid passport and pass border control without applying in advance.

The permitted length of stay is set at the border; ask the officer if it is not stamped in your passport.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage

Your plugs fit: every plug type used in France (C, E) works with sockets in Lithuania. Mains voltage differs (Lithuania: 220 V; France: 230 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
