The country's government made the decision to allow driving lessons to resume last week following protests in major Lithuanian cities.
Under the latest lockdown changes, as of Wednesday, all incoming people are required to have a negative COVID-19 test done no later than three days before. The requirement does not apply to people transiting Lithuania, people who have had the coronavirus infection or have been vaccinated against it, as well as people under 16. Up until now, people could undergo tests in Lithuania upon arrival.
The second lockdown was introduced in Lithuania on November 7 and is now set to last until the end of March. The Lithuanian government plans to gradually ease the lockdown if the epidemiological situation improves.
Official statistics show now the rate of new coronavirus cases per population of 100,000 stands at 237 in Lithuania.
