Lithuania → Netherlands: Highly skilled migrant residence permit

Whether you need a visa at all, according to official sources.

Checked by our automated verification on 20 Oct 2026: every source on this page resolves and the data is structurally complete. This does not confirm a person re-read the source text for accuracy.

You likely don't need this permit

EU, EEA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway), and Swiss citizens don't need a residence permit or work permit to work in the Netherlands. A valid passport or ID card from one of these countries is proof enough of the right to live and work there, and their employer doesn't need a work permit either.

Every report is personal: a document check is built from one person's own answers and documents, so two people on this route can get different results. Run your own check rather than relying on a friend's or relative's; each person is responsible for their own application.
