Lithuania visa for Azerbaijani citizens

Lithuania’s tourist visa costs €90 at the standard rate published by its authorities. Processing time, as Lithuania states it: 15 calendar days as a rule, up to 45 days in individual cases. Longest stay on the tourist visa: Up to 90 days in any 180-day period in the Schengen area.

Lithuania has 1 mission in Azerbaijan, with its embassy in Baku.

In 2025, Lithuania’s embassy and consulates in Azerbaijan (Baku) received 3,436 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 2,832. The refusal rate was 15.5%. The refusal rate rose by 7.1 points from 8.4% in 2024, a sharp increase. Applications rose by 33% compared with 2024 (2,582).

For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 9.8% of the applications lodged in Azerbaijan that year, from 3.0% at the consulates of Greece to 26.1% at those of Bulgaria. Lithuania’s consulates worldwide refused 14.4%. Lithuania was the 8th most applied-for Schengen state in Azerbaijan.

You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Azerbaijan, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.

Before travelling from Azerbaijan to Lithuania, it helps to know the official travel advice: the US State Department rates Lithuania at Level 1, exercise normal precautions (updated 27 April 2026), the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office does not advise against travel to Lithuania (updated 11 August 2026) and the German Foreign Office has no travel warning for Lithuania (updated 13 October 2026). The advice is aimed at each government’s own nationals.
