Start the process several weeks before your planned trip, as processing times vary.

The Congolese passport ranks #175 worldwide, opening 47 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (19 visa-free, 26 with a visa on arrival and 2 with an eTA). Lithuania is not among them — it is one of the 107 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.
The arrangement is reciprocal: Lithuanian citizens traveling to Republic of the Congo face the same requirement (visa required).
Northern Europe is closed to spontaneous travel for Congolese passport holders: none of its 10 destinations can be entered without an application first.
