Customs duties

After Lithuania joined the EU, the country abolished customs duties at EU national borders, and implemented a uniform system of taxing imports. However, national tax authorities enforce the EU customs laws and sometimes they are wrong on interpreting the EU customs regulations.

We advise on all matters related to international transactions and customs: 

• Importation of goods for release for free circulation, temporary importation procedures, inward processing, processing under customs control, delivery of goods to customs warehousing, placing goods at free zones
• Exportation of goods, outward processing, customs warehouses and free zones
• Customs transit
• Preferential treatment of goods
• Restrictions, prohibitions, anti-dumping and anti-subsidy duties
• Assistance with determining product’s tariff classification and its custom origin, identification of applicable customs duties
• Assistance in dealings with customs authorities, assistance during customs inspections
• Challenging unfavourable decisions of customs authorities
