======================================
Odoo electronic invoicing in Lithuania
======================================
Odoo Invoicing is your trusted partner for safe, efficient, and legally compliant e-invoicing
solutions tailored to Lithuania's regulatory standards.
Legal framework for e-invoicing in Lithuania
============================================
In Lithuania, e-invoicing is regulated under the `Law on Accounting <https://www.e-tar.lt/portal/lt/legalAct/207ad17030a011e78397ae072f58c508>`_
and aligned with `EU Directive 2014/55/EU <https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32014L0055>`_
for mandatory :abbr:`B2G (business-to-government)` e-invoicing. Businesses working with public
sector entities must use e-invoicing, and invoices must be submitted through the E.sąskaita
platform, Lithuanias centralized invoicing system for public procurement. Lithuania also
participates in the Peppol network, enabling seamless cross-border e-invoicing. While B2B
e-invoicing is currently optional, its use is encouraged to enhance tax compliance and operational
efficiency.
Compliance with Lithuanian e-invoicing regulations
==================================================
Odoo invoicing module is fully equipped to meet Lithuania's e-invoicing requirements and ensure
compliance with local and EU standards. Here is how Odoo ensures compliance:
- **Supported formats**: Odoo supports Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 and XML formats required for
compliance with E.sąskaita, ensuring e-invoices meet the mandatory standards for public
procurement and cross-border transactions. Odoo enables businesses to send e-invoices directly to
public entities with Lithuanias E.sąskaita platform. For international invoicing, Odoo supports
the Peppol network.
- **Secure storage and retrieval**: In compliance with Lithuanian regulations, which require
invoices to be stored for a minimum of ten years, Odoo securely archives all invoices in a
tamper-proof system, ensuring they are accessible for audits and tax inspections.
- **Automatic VAT calculation and reporting**: Odoo Invoicing automates VAT calculations and ensures
invoices meet Lithuanias VAT requirements for both B2G and B2B transactions, reducing the risk of
non-compliance.
