A foreign company
Registers from its first taxable supply; needs a local tax representative

A foreign taxable person must register in Lithuania when it supplies goods or services whose place of supply is Lithuania, regardless of the €45,000 threshold. A person established in a third country must register through a Lithuanian branch or, without one, an appointed Lithuanian fiscal agent, unless its state has a mutual assistance arrangement equivalent to Directive 2010/24/EU; a person established in another EU state registers itself or through an authorised person.
