Covid certificates will not be needed for intercity travel and can be obtained with even an antigen test
Starting on 13 September, access to certain activities and services in Lithuania becomes possible only with an Opportunity Pass (Galimybių Pasas).
The national Covid certificate is issued to people who have been fully vaccinated, have recovered from Covid-19 in the past six months, or have tested negative for coronavirus using a PCR or an antigen test valid for 72 and 48 hours respectively. The EU Digital COVID Certificate is also accepted.
LRT has prepared a list of services and activities which require possession of an Opportunity Pass (with or without exceptions):
The Lithuanian government has allowed higher education students to attend lectures without presenting the Opportunity Pass until 15 October, on condition that they take a preventive Covid-19 test. The logic behind the decision is that some students have failed to get their second vaccine shot in time to develop full immunity before the start of the academic year.
Students must undergo preventive antigen or PCR testing every 7–10 days free of charge until 15 October, and afterwards, they will have to conduct paid tests to be able to attend classes.
