A medical certificate indicating whether a person has addressed RCAD and/or has received any treatment services within a 5-year period is issued to all citizens of the Republic of Lithuania. To obtain the certificate, please contact the reception of RCAD branch (in Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai, Panevėžys) or use the automated certificate ordering and payment system.

Documents required to receive the certificate in the reception of RCAD branch:

• present a document confirming your identity,
• pay for the certificate issuance service at the registry (issue of certificate – 7 EUR).

The certificate is issued immediately upon arrival at the registry office.

Note: Form 049/a is required to obtain a weapon permit (available at the polyclinic where the person is registered).

Issuing a certificate via the automatic certificate ordering and payment system:

• https://www.rplc.lt/en/services/other-services/order-a-certificate/, select “Order certificate” in the upper right corner of the website and follow the instructions.

Please note

1. Drivers’ health is checked by a family doctor providing primary health care services at the health care institution where the patient is registered or by a psychiatrist at the mental health center. A certificate from RCAD only provides information on whether the person has been treated for addiction and does not replace the certificate from a psychiatrist, which you must obtain from the mental health center where the patient is registered.
2. Only if a person has not been consulted or treated at any RCAD branch for five years for the use of alcohol, drugs, or other psychoactive substances (apart from tobacco F17) will a certificate be issued certifying that the individual has not received treatment services at any of our center’s branches (Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai, Panevėžys). Those who have been treated and/or consulted at our center may personally (by presenting a document confirming their identity) apply to any branch (in Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, Šiauliai, Panevėžys) for the preparation of a “Medical document extract/Referral” (Form 027/a) about the addiction treatment services provided by RCAD.

If it is determined that you have been consulted or treated at any RPLC branch, the certificate will not be issued and the money paid will not be refunded.

3. When preparing the certificate, we immediately check whether you have received treatment services at any RCAD branch. There is no need to order separate certificates from different branches.
4. Please be careful when transferring payment for the certificate. If you suspect that the payment has not been made, make sure that it has not been made before repeating the payment process.
5. If you are unable to retrieve and print the certificate from your esveikata.lt portal personal account, you may retrieve it in person at a branch that is convenient for you.
