To register for VAT in Lithuania, you must meet one or more of the following criteria:

• Mandatory registration threshold: Your taxable turnover in Lithuania exceeds or is expected to exceed €45,000 within a 12-month period
• Cross-border supplies: You make intra-Community acquisitions of goods or distance sales to Lithuanian customers that exceed EU thresholds
• Business establishment: You establish a fixed place of business, subsidiary, or branch in Lithuania
• Voluntary registration: You wish to register voluntarily even if below the threshold (common for businesses reclaiming VAT on expenses)
• Specific transactions: You engage in certain taxable activities such as importing goods, reverse-charge mechanisms, or construction services

You will need to provide documentation including proof of business registration in your home country, details of your business activities in Lithuania, and identification documents for company directors or authorized representatives.

1. Initial Consultation and Eligibility Assessment: We begin by reviewing your business model, turnover, and activities in Lithuania to determine your VAT obligations and registration requirements. We'll clarify whether registration is mandatory or advisable in your specific circumstances.
2. Documentation Review and Preparation: Our team guides you through gathering the necessary supporting documents, including company registration certificates, articles of association, proof of business address, director identification, and descriptions of your taxable activities. We ensure all documents meet Lithuanian tax authority standards and arrange certified translations where required.
3. Application Completion and Submission: We prepare and complete your VAT registration application (Form FR0600) in Lithuanian, ensuring accuracy and compliance with all regulatory requirements. Our team submits the application directly to the State Tax Inspectorate on your behalf.
4. Liaison with Tax Authorities: We act as your representative in all communications with the Lithuanian tax authorities, responding to any queries, providing additional information if requested, and monitoring the progress of your application throughout the review process.
5. VAT Number Issuance and Confirmation: Once approved, we receive your Lithuanian VAT identification number and certificate of registration. We provide you with all official documentation and confirm the effective date of your registration and your ongoing compliance obligations.
6. Post-Registration Guidance: We brief you on your VAT filing obligations, reporting deadlines, record-keeping requirements, and how to use Lithuania's electronic tax filing system. We ensure you understand your responsibilities and have the information needed to maintain compliance going forward.

• Ensure Full Compliance from Day One: VAT registration errors or delays can result in penalties, interest charges, and operational disruptions. Our expertise ensures your application is complete, accurate, and submitted on time, protecting you from costly compliance failures.
