Lithuania implements stricter requirements for third-country nationals and employers

On 20 June 2024, the Lithuanian parliament passed amendments to its laws that introduce stricter requirements for third-country nationals and their employers. Most of the new rules go into effect on 1 July 2024. In mid-April 2024, the Lithuanian government approved a draft amendment to the Law on the Legal Status of Foreigners that introduces stricter work authorization (and sponsorship) requirements for third-country nationals and their employers. Most of these changes go into effect on 1 July 2024, with the new quota requirement going into effect on 1 January 2025.

A Tax Alert prepared by EY's People Advisory Services group, and attached below, provides additional details.
