All essential information for a successful trip – from documents to baggage rules
When traveling, you must have (including infants) a valid passport (and visa, if required) or an EU/EEA identity card. When traveling within the European Union and Schengen countries, there are no legal regulations regarding the validity of EU citizens' documents: they only need to be valid for the entire trip. To avoid problems, we recommend that Lithuanian citizens' passports or ID cards are valid for at least 3 months after the planned return date.
The list of Schengen countries and more information about Schengen rules can be found on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania website: www.urm.lt. Border crossing and passport control rules for non-Schengen country citizens (non-Lithuanians) are different. More information: www.urm.lt
When traveling to Turkey, Egypt, and other non-EU countries, a passport must usually be valid at least 6 months after the planned return, and in some cases 12 months. Please check this in advance and obtain valid travel documents. More info: www.migracija.lt
Note: children's documents are valid for shorter periods (2–5 years). Make sure to check your child’s passport expiration before traveling.
If a passport or ID is lost or damaged, inform the tour representative immediately. A temporary travel document will be issued, but this may take time, especially if there is no Lithuanian embassy/consulate nearby. The temporary document is valid only for returning to Lithuania, not further travel. All related costs must be covered by the traveler.
The list of countries Lithuanian citizens can enter without a visa is available at www.urm.lt. To check whether you need a visa for a specific country: https://keliauk.urm.lt/lt/keliaujantiems/pries-pradedant-kelione/vizos
Please note that visa fees are non-refundable, even if the application is denied. For up-to-date information on visa requirements, documents, costs, and processing, contact the embassy of the destination country, your travel agency, or visit www.urm.lt.
Visa rules for non-Lithuanian citizens may differ. If a visa cannot be obtained in Lithuania, you must apply at the nearest embassy of the destination country.
Kelionių Šerpas travel agency is not responsible if a traveler without the required visa cannot depart, or for decisions made by border or migration authorities and any resulting losses.
We recommend purchasing travel medical insurance to cover necessary medical expenses in case of an accident. Please check the insurance terms and know where to go in case of an emergency. Insurance can be purchased at travel agencies or insurance companies.
Travel brings wonderful emotions, and during pregnancy it becomes even more special. We want to ensure your journey is smooth and safe, but keep in mind that a pregnant body reacts more sensitively to changes.

Your and your baby’s safety is our priority – let’s ensure a safe and pleasant trip! 🤰✈️
Within Schengen countries, a minor can travel alone with a valid passport or ID card. For travel outside Schengen with one parent, no written consent from the other is needed.
If a child’s surname differs from the accompanying parent’s, border guards may request the birth certificate.
If a child is traveling alone or with another adult, a notarized parental consent is required. More info: www.urm.lt
Children under 5 must always be accompanied by an adult. Parents may request airline escort service for children aged 5–12.
The child will be supervised during the flight and escorted to the meeting adult upon arrival. This must be booked in advance by filling in an "Unaccompanied Minor" form with details such as the child’s name, ID code, and contact info for both departure and arrival guardians.
Most airlines apply similar rules and discounts for children. You must provide the child’s exact date of birth when booking.
If the child turns 2 during the trip, they are considered a 2-year-old for that flight. Children under 2 do not get a seat but may carry 1 piece of checked baggage (up to 10kg), a baby bag, food, and a foldable stroller.
From age 2, a child has the same seat and baggage allowance as an adult.
Before traveling, especially to distant countries, check for infectious disease risks and preventive vaccinations. Information for travelers: https://www.ulac.lt/keliautojams

Check-in is done at the airport. Arrive at least 2 hours before the flight to complete registration, baggage drop, and border checks. Boarding gates close 30–45 minutes before departure.
