Релокация в Литву: подробный гид для русскоязычных

In this video, we tell you how relocation to Lithuania goes: from the first steps to a full-fledged life in a new place. Our heroes share their personal experiences - how they moved, what difficulties they encountered, what surprised them and what was a real discovery. You will learn how to get a visa, residence permit and work permit, what are the grounds for moving and where to start. We will talk about the Lithuanian language, the attitude of locals towards Russian speakers and how our community feels in Lithuania. We will also discuss finding a job, starting a business, taxes and why you should pay that very "sodra". We will talk about renting housing, prices, realtors, as well as how medicine works and how comfortable it is to go to doctors. We also did not ignore important everyday topics: transportation, cost of living, banking system, education for children and socialization in a new society. And, of course, a little about food, safety and what is really impressive in Lithuania. 00:00 Intro 01:17 Opening 01:37 Getting to know our heroes.
