- This specific substance was not named in the cited Lithuanian sources (Criminal Code, Baudžiamasis kodeksas, Arts 259/260; Law on Control of Narcotic and Psychotropic Substances) — do NOT assume it is permitted; verify before travel. In Lithuania (EU; no death penalty), the Criminal Code distinguishes possession without intent to distribute (Art 259) from production or distribution (Art 260). Possession without intent to distribute (Art 259) draws up to 2 years (a fine, restriction of liberty, arrest or imprisonment). [reported] Since 2017 administrative liability for personal-use possession was abolished, making it criminal-only, though a 2017 amendment introduced a narrow administrative path for very small first-time amounts that is applied inconsistently. Distribution or production (Art 260) draws 2–12 years, rising to 5–15 years for a particularly large quantity; import or export is treated as aggravated trafficking under Art 260. Lithuania is noted as unusually punitive, and cannabis is Schedule I.

Phenibut
- Legal status
- Phenibut (fenibutas; 4-amino-3-phenylbutanoic acid) is a controlled substance in Lithuania. It was added to the lists of narcotic and psychotropic substances subject to control that are approved by the Order of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Lithuania (the schedules established under the Law on the Control of Narcotic and Psychotropic Substances), bringing it under the controlled-substances regime rather than allowing free sale as a supplement.
- Consequences if caught
- Because phenibut is a scheduled controlled substance, unauthorised handling — production, supply, trafficking or unlicensed distribution — is dealt with under Lithuania's controlled-substances offence framework; there is no lawful over-the-counter or supplement channel for it.
- If prescribed / medical
- Phenibut is not an authorised medicinal product in Lithuania and has no ordinary prescription status; its inclusion in the ministerial narcotic/psychotropic control lists means access is restricted to any narrowly authorised scientific or medical purposes.
- Documentation
- Phenibut is listed in the lists of narcotic and psychotropic substances approved by the Order of the Minister of Health (the consolidated schedules under the Law on the Control of Narcotic and Psychotropic Substances), maintained on the official Lithuanian legal-acts register (e-seimas / TAR).
