About Lithuania
Lithuania is a Eurozone country in Eastern Europe and the most southern of the Baltic States. It borders Latvia, Belarus, Poland and Kaliningrad, covers an area of 65, 300 km2, and has a population of 3,505,738. Lithuanian is the country’s official language but a smaller proportion of the population speaks Russian and Polish. Lithuania has a moderate climate, with an average temperature in summer of 16°C (61°F) and an average temperature in winter of -6°C (21°F).
Lithuania’s capital city is Vilnius, which is a small city with a population of 519,000. Vilnius can be reached by plane from across Europe, landing at Vilnius International Airport. The city enjoys a spectacular Old Town showcasing baroque architecture. Among the most popular tourist attractions are St Anne’s Church, St Peter’s Church and St Paul’s Church. There is also a KGB Museum, on the site of the former KGB headquarters, which stands as a reminder of Lithuania’s oppressive past.
Outside the capital, there are numerous areas of natural beauty to enjoy, including the Curonian Spit National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stretches from Lithuania to Russia. The Curonian Spit is a beautiful example of a landscape of sand dunes and is 98 km long and 4 km wide. There is a road running the length of the Spit, so you can travel it by car (a bus service is also available). The Lithuanian end of the Spit also has a bicycle track from the northern tip to the town of Nida on the border with Russia.
Further inland you can enjoy pine forests and lakes, such as Dzūkija National Park, the country’s most extensive forest and largest protected area at 697 km2. Here you can enjoy views of the Ūla river exposure, go kayaking and angling in the many rivers, streams and lakes, and go walking and cycling on the 6 bicycle routes and footpaths. You may also come across some of the small villages within the forest, which speak to a by-gone era, with their wooden houses and unpaved streets.

Air Freight to Lithuania
If you have large bulky items ? such as a chest of drawers or ottoman ? that you need to send to Lithuania, one option you can try is air freight. Transit time is normally one or two days, making it a quick service. This option can be quite expensive, though, with costs increasing as your shipment size increases. A customs agent will need to be hired to sort customs clearance for you. Another expense to consider is transporting your items to and from the airport, which means the price of using air freight could quickly mount up. If you send internationally by air freight to Lithuania your items will likely arrive at Vilnius International Airport.
Sea Freight and Container Shipping to Lithuania
Another option for shipping large bulky items is sea freight or container shipping. Sea freight shipping to Lithuania is much slower than air freight, taking a number of weeks, but it’s typically cheaper than air freight. However, you will still need to pay for the services of a customs agent and will need to arrange transport for your items to and from the ports. When using container shipping to Lithuania, your items will most likely arrive by ship at one of the major sea ports, such as the Port of Klaipeda.
Shipping Goods to Lithuania
Make sure you find out current customs rules when shipping goods to Lithuania. You should be fully aware of any duty that you need to pay and what items are permitted to be shipped to Lithuania, which items are restricted, and which are entirely prohibited. Take a look at the prohibited items and customs sections on this page for more information.
