This article lists political parties in Lithuania. Lithuania has a multi-party system with numerous political parties, in which no one party often has a chance of gaining power alone, and parties must work with each other to form coalition governments. As of March 2024[update], there are 22 active political parties, one inactive political party, and three political parties that are in the process of disestablishment registered with the Ministry of Justice.[1][2]
As of March 2024[update], Lithuania has a total of 101,003 people registered as party members and is experiencing a sharp decline in political congregation, with a 7.69% decrease from the start of public membership tracking in 2018.[2] This is at least partially a result of a low trust in political parties with the institution firmly occupying the top-2 least trusted positions in the country, alongside the Seimas, in opinion polls.[3]
There are currently twelve parties represented in the Seimas. The current government is a broad majority coalition of the Homeland Union - Lithuanian Christian Democrats, Liberal Movement and Freedom Party.
As of 2024[update], one political party has not submitted the necessary documents to be registered for the upcoming elections.[1]
