In order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Kazakhstan, the government of Kazakhstan has temporarily suspended its unilateral visa-free regime for citizens of 57 states, including the Republic of Lithuania, starting from 17 April 2020 to 31 December 2021.

The above means that the citizens of the Republic of Lithuania who are planning to visit Kazakhstan before 31 December 2021 will need to obtain a visa of the appropriate category at the consular office of the Embassy of Kazakhstan in Lithuania.

Until the sanitary and epidemiological situation improves, the crossing of the State Border of the Republic of Kazakhstan is temporarily restricted. Due to ongoing restrictions, Kazakh visas will only be issued to a few categories of foreign citizens who are allowed to enter the Republic of Kazakhstan for the period of pandemic.

Therefore, before submitting documents for issuing visas, you must carefully read the Kazakhstan State Border Crossing Procedure during the quarantine restrictions period (more details are on the website of the Border Guard Service of the National Security Committee of the Republic of Kazakhstan).
