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.
Border officers can still ask for a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and enough money for your stay, and they decide on entry. The stay limit applies per visit; many countries also cap total days within a period.
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
You need a travel adapter: Lithuania uses plug types C, F, the United Kingdom uses G. Mains voltage differs (Lithuania: 220 V; the United Kingdom: 230 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
