A single entry national visa shall be issued to a foreigner who has been granted a temporary or permanent residence permit in the Republic of Lithuania. A multiple-entry national visa shall be issued to a foreigner whose purpose of entry into the Republic of Lithuania is a long-term stay in the Republic of Lithuania.
