Overview
Lithuania's life expectancy stood at 76.4 in 2025, a decline of +0.6 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 76.4 by 2025. Lithuania ranked 87th globally.
Lithuania’s life expectancy has risen steadily over the 65‑year series, climbing from 69.85 in 1960 to 76.41 in 2025, which places the country 87th in the global ranking. The trajectory shows a pronounced dip in the mid‑1990s, reaching an all‑time trough of 68.53 in 1994, a period linked to the socioeconomic upheavals of post‑Soviet transition. Recovery accelerated thereafter, culminating in an all‑time peak of 76.99 in 2023, the highest level recorded for the nation. Compared with peers of similar rank, Lithuania’s 2025 figure of 76.41 is marginally above Argentina’s 76.38 and just below Cabo Verde’s 76.45, indicating comparable health outcomes among middle‑ranking countries. The recent upward swing suggests that continued investment in preventive care and chronic disease management could sustain incremental gains, while any reversal in economic stability or public‑health funding might blunt the forward momentum.
