No, same-sex marriage is banned both by the Lithuanian Constitution and by the Civil Code.

Article 38 of the Lithuanian Constitution says: "Marriage shall be concluded upon the free mutual consent of a man and a woman."

Article 3.12 of the Lithuanian Civil Code says: "Marriage shall be concluded with a person of the opposite sex only."
