Duties are calculated based on the CIF (Cost, Insurance &amp; Freight) price, which is the full value of the imported goods plus insurance and freight costs. Goods imported into Jersey from the European Union are exempt from duties but are still subject to GST (Generalized System of Preferences).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>Tax and duty rates in Lithuania.<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lithuania has customs duties ranging from 0% (e.g., books) to 17% (e.g., Wellington Boots). Some items shipped to Lithuania are duty-free, such as laptop computers, mobile phones, digital cameras, and video games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Certain types of goods shipped to Lithuania are subject to additional duties, depending on the country of origin. For example, bicycles imported from China are subject to an additional duty of 48.5% (anti-dumping).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><br \/><strong>Value Added Tax (VAT) rates in Lithuania.<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Shipments to Lithuania are subject to a Value Added Tax (VAT) of 21%, with specific items such as newspapers, magazines, and other periodicals subject to a lower VAT rate of 9%. VAT is calculated on the value of the goods plus international shipping and insurance costs plus import duties (if applicable).\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>Minimum taxes and duties in Lithuania.<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lithuania has a minimum duty levy, but will waive duties and value-added tax in the following cases:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lithuania calculates import duties on an FOB basis (meaning the value of the goods only, excluding shipping and insurance costs). For shipments to Lithuania with a value not exceeding EUR150, no import duty will be charged.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Shipments to Lithuania with a value not exceeding EUR22 will be exempt from Value Added Tax (VAT).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>Other taxes and customs fees in Lithuania.<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Shipments of tobacco and alcohol to Lithuania are subject to excise duty, and additional customs fees may be charged to cover necessary costs for inspection, verification, and\/or testing of imported goods.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><br \/><strong>Location and contact information for the Lithuanian Customs Department.<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Further information regarding import declaration procedures and restrictions on shipments to Lithuania can be found on the Lithuanian Customs website:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/vls.lrmuitine.lt\/en\/web\/lt-customs\/electronic-services\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/vls.lrmuitine.lt\/en\/web\/lt-customs\/electronic-services<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><strong>How to send something to Lithuania.<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For shipments to Lithuania, SME SHIPPING provides document and parcel delivery services via DHL EXPRESS, FEDEX EXPRESS, TNT EXPRESS, Global Mail, and international sea freight.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0e2a\u0e48\u0e07\u0e02\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e44\u0e1b\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e40\u0e17\u0e28\u0e25\u0e34\u0e17\u0e31\u0e27\u0e40\u0e19\u0e35\u0e22 (Lithuania) Mange m\u00e6nd oplever i deres liv perioder pr\u00e6get af vanskeligheder med seksuel ydeevne.
