Important information

We remind you that the Law on Tourism of the Republic of Lithuania states that:

"accommodated persons, except for minor children who arrived with them, shall confirm their identity - shall present a valid personal identity document to the accommodation service provider.

Personal data are processed for the purposes of recording travellers and tourists and implementing Article 45(1)(b) of the Convention of 19 June 1990 on the Schengen Agreement concluded on 14 June 1985 between the Governments of the States of the Benelux Economic Union, the Federal Republic of Germany and the French Republic on the gradual abolition of checks at their common borders."

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that an amendment to the Law on Tourism will enter into force on 1 January 2025, which establishes an obligation for accommodation service providers to submit the above-collected data to the National Tourism Information System (NTIS) within 24 hours.

Therefore, accommodation providers will be required to request identification from all adult guests. The data collected during registration will be securely stored in the National Tourism Information System subsystem „E. turistas“, where the data is anonymized and used for statistical purposes and will not in any way violate the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation.

If identification is refused, the accommodation provider has the right to refuse to provide accommodation services.

Why is it required to provide the identity document of all adult guests at check-in?

The Tourism Law of the Republic of Lithuania, with its latest amendments coming into effect on January 1, 2025, states that: "Guests, except for minors traveling with them, must confirm their identity by presenting a valid identity document to the accommodation service provider." Therefore, accommodation providers comply with this legal requirement.

During registration, the collected data will be securely stored in the "E.turistas" subsystem of the National Tourism Information System, where the data will be anonymized and used for statistical purposes without violating the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

What data will be entered into the system?

The primary data to be entered include: your first name, last name, date of birth, document number, and the country that issued the document, as well as the start and end dates of your stay.

Additional data may also be included: the country and city you are traveling from, the number of minors traveling with you, the purpose of your trip (work, leisure, health, or other), and whether you are traveling with a tourist group (via a travel agency). You may also provide your address if requested by the accommodation provider, but this is not mandatory.

Is this data secure?

Yes, the data is securely stored in a state information system, ensuring the same level of protection as other critical state information systems. Additionally, once entered into the system, the data is encrypted, and your name and surname will not be visible. Each guest is registered in the system with a separate card, and no records are kept of accompanyingadult persons or room numbers. The data will be used solely for statistical purposes.

Can the accommodation provider send me a link and ask me to fill in the information?

Yes, this is one of the system’s functionalities. The system can generate a link that the accommodation provider can send to you, allowing you to fill it out before your arrival.
