Lithuania VAT rate cut to 18%

  • May 5, 2019 | Richard Asquith

The Lithuanian parliament is considering a proposal to cut the standard VAT rate from 21% to 18%. It was last raised from 19% to 21% in September 2009 during the financial crisis.

The proposal is being promoted as a boost to the economy, and lowering the disincentive to tax fraud. VAT is the largest tax revenue for the government.
