This article lists political parties in Lithuania. As of October 2025[update], there are 23 active political parties registered with the Ministry of Justice, and one party undergoing formal registration. Lithuania has a multi-party system 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 October 2025[update], Lithuania has a total of 97,158 people registered as party members and is experiencing a sharp decline in political congregation, with a 11.21% decrease from the start of public membership tracking in 2018. Distrust in political parties emerged as a major contributor to this, the institution's continued decline in opinion polling now ranks it as the least trusted, having overtaken the Seimas, with only a single digit percentage of representative population expressing confidence.
