Canadian citizens do not need a visa to travel to countries within the Schengen area for stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period. If you leave the Schengen area and return within the same 180-day period, the previous stay will count against the permitted 90 days.

According to the provisions of the Resolution of the Seimas of the Republic of Lithuania "On the Introduction of the State of Emergency", the acceptance of visa applications of the citizens of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus and the adoption of decisions on these applications by the Lithuanian visa authorities abroad is suspended, except in cases when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania mediates the issuance of visas. Visa applications may be submitted by family members of citizens of the Republic of Lithuania and of the European Union.

National Visa, Temporary Residence Permit

If you intend to stay in the Republic of Lithuania for more than 90 days within 180 days, you must acquire National visa (D) or Temporary Residence Permit.
