VAT Registration Thresholds in Lithuania

VAT registration is mandatory if: • B2C/B2B revenue from goods/services supplied in Lithuania exceeds €45,000 during the current or previous calendar year (since May 1, 2025, the threshold is evaluated on a calendar year basis rather than a rolling 12-month period). • The value of goods purchased and brought to Lithuania from other EU member states exceeds €14,000 (excl. VAT) in a calendar year. • VAT registration or VAT calculation liability can also arise regardless of revenue thresholds when purchasing certain services from foreign taxable persons or providing B2B services to companies in other EU countries. You can also register for VAT voluntarily.

What is input VAT deduction?

Input VAT deduction allows VAT payers to recover the VAT paid on business expenses. If output VAT (charged to clients) is higher than input VAT (paid to suppliers), the difference is paid to the state. If input VAT is higher, the difference can be refunded.

VAT Calculation Formulas

Adding VAT: • VAT Amount = Price excl. VAT * (Rate / 100) • Price incl. VAT = Price excl. VAT * (1 + Rate / 100) Subtracting VAT (calculating from price with VAT): • Price excl. VAT = Price incl. VAT / (1 + Rate / 100) • VAT Amount = Price incl. VAT - Price excl. VAT
