Tesla Launches Full Self-Driving in Lithuania
By Reuters | 20 May, 2026
Tesla's Full Self-Driving (Supervised) driver assistance software was being rolled out in Lithuania after it was approved in the Netherlands last month.
Tesla said on X on Wednesday that its Full Self-Driving (Supervised) driver assistance software was being rolled out in Lithuania, the second country in Europe to do so after Dutch approval last month.
• Dutch regulator RDW is seeking EU-wide acceptance, but other member states can recognise the Dutch approval and allow the system to be deployed.
• The Lithuanian Transport Safety Administration confirmed Lithuania has recognised the Dutch certification.
• Belgium was expected to be the first country to follow the Dutch as an authorisation process had started in the Flanders region where one Tesla car is testing FSD on roads.
• The Greek transport ministry said on Wednesday it had an upcoming bill granting the same type of approval as the Dutch.
• Dutch RDW tested the system for over 1 1/2 years on a test track and on public roads before granting approval.
