The Kaunas City Council decided on Tuesday to extend the public transport concession for Ukrainian refugees. Ukrainians will be able to use public transport in Lithuania’s second biggest city for a symbolic fee throughout 2024.
The Council decision states that foreigners who fled Ukraine due to Russian military action will benefit from a 99-percent discount on electronic tickets for buses and trolleybuses.
Tens of thousands of people from Ukraine came to Lithuania following the Russian invasion in February 2022.
To benefit from the discount, Ukrainians will have to present a registration card issued by the Migration Department or a valid residence permit and a personal document issued by a foreign country.
Other major Lithuanian cities have also offered free public transport to Ukrainian refugees.
