Lithuania is on the Road to E‑invoicing

Lithuania has a B2G mandate and implemented a PEPPOL-based solution integrated with eSaskaita. While the country's B2G sector follows the centralized CTC model, Lithuania applies post-audit for business transactions.

On April 18, 2019, Lithuania launched an e-invoicing module for the new national e-invoice standard. This module will enable contracting authorities and entities to receive and process electronic invoices compatible with EN (European Norm).

The central platform responsible for receiving and sending electronic invoices in Lithuania is eSaskaita. It managed relationships between suppliers and public institutions. Since 2019, it has also been possible to use the PEPPOL network, with connections to the government platform made via PEPPOL-accredited service providers. Starting July 1, 2024, providers and recipients of invoices began the transition to the General Information System for Accounts Administration (SABIS), which will replace the currently operating eSaskaita. The transition period lasted two months – ending on August 31, 2024. Additionally, all invoices based on verbal contracts, regardless of their amount, must be submitted to the SABIS portal starting January 1, 2025.

E-Invoicing Implementation timeline

Implementation timeline

A step towards the B2B mandate: the local authorities launched a tender for the e-invoicing tool. There are plans to launch a B2B e-invoicing mandate by adapting currently existing solutions.

B2G became mandatory for all taxpayers on July 1, 2017
2026 January - B2B e-invoicing mandate based on Peppol and an obligation for real-time reporting transaction data to the State Revenue Service (SRS).

How we can help
