Changes are as follows:

  • US Embassies: US embassies in Lithuania and their personnel are now exempt from VAT refunds for vehicles purchased. This means that the aforementioned persons will no longer be required to pay (refund) VAT to the budget if the vehicle purchased with VAT relief is not kept as property for 3 years.
  • Czech Republic Diplomatic Missions: Families of Czech Republic diplomatic missions in Lithuania are no longer eligible for VAT exemptions on fuel for vehicles. Likewise, VAT and/or excise duty relief for the purchased road vehicle fuel will not be applied to family members of the diplomatic, administrative, and technical staff of the Embassy of the Czech Republic in the Republic of Lithuania living together.

These changes apply to goods and services purchased on or after September 1, 2024.
