Taxes for persons self-employed under a business license

Persons self-employed under a business license are required to pay: 

  • income tax, fixed annually by respective municipalities, depending on location and type of activity; 
  • compulsory health insurance (CHI) contributions; 
  • state social insurance (SSI) contributions; 
  • value added tax (VAT), depending on the amount of income sourced from self-employment under a business license, purchases of goods from Member States of the EU, and purchases of services supplied in Lithuania from foreign-based persons (e.g. Bolt, Uber, Booking, Airbnb).
