Does this apply to me?

Two questions. The fixed-establishment rule is where most foreign businesses get it wrong.

Is your business established in Lithuania (registered office, branch or fixed establishment)?

Do you make intra-EU B2B supplies involving Lithuania?

Lithuania: likely outside the issuing mandate — watch e-reporting / cross-border

VAT registration or trading alone, without a fixed establishment, usually keeps you outside Lithuania's issuing obligation — but you may still face e-reporting or need to receive structured e-invoices. Confirm your establishment status.

Not in scope for Lithuania

With no establishment and no registration or trade in Lithuania, the mandate doesn't apply to you today. Revisit this if you open a branch, warehouse or start supplying into Lithuania.

Lithuania: no domestic mandate yet — ViDA applies from July 2030

Lithuania has no confirmed domestic B2B mandate, but ViDA makes structured e-invoicing and digital reporting mandatory for intra-EU B2B from 1 July 2030. Build EN 16931 / Peppol capability now.

No e-invoicing mandate applies in Lithuania today

No domestic B2B e-invoicing mandate applies in Lithuania at present (B2G may already require it). Keep an eye on national legislation and the 2030 ViDA date.
