Flight reservation for your Lithuania application

What official sources say

The Lithuanian MFA page for Schengen visas (New York consulate) lists ‘proof of travel arrangements (flight (roundtrip)/travel reservations or other proof of intended transport and full itinerary)’ and proof of accommodation or travel plans for the Schengen area.

The central keliauk.urm.lt list refers only to documents indicating the purpose of the journey and accommodation documents, and does not mention tickets.

Good to know for Lithuania

• The ticket wording comes from one consulate page. Check the Lithuanian mission that covers you.

Step by step: using a flight reservation

1. Check the official checklist for your application and ask your application centre what they accept.
2. Search flights on Visa Flight Pass with your real route and dates.
3. Choose a flight and click Book for Visa proof. Only flights the airline lets us hold are offered.
4. Enter each traveller exactly as in the passport.
5. Pay the service fee and receive the reservation PDF by email.
6. Attach the PDF unaltered to your application.

Timing

Airline holds are short, typically from about a day to a few days. Apply while the reservation is still valid, or ask your application centre whether it must be active on your appointment date.

Limits and honesty

A reservation is not a ticket: you cannot fly on it. Use real names and never edit the PDF. Requirements differ between embassies, consulates and application centres, and some ask for a paid ticket. No document guarantees a visa or entry. Always confirm against the checklist for your own application.
