Definition
MIGRIS is Lithuania's electronic migration system used for many visa and residence-permit procedures. Sponsors and applicants may both need to interact with it, depending on the route, especially where the employer must first submit a mediation letter or related supporting step. In practical terms, MIGRIS is the filing channel, not the legal status itself, but it is critical to how many Lithuanian cases are processed.
