From <strong>2025\u20132026.<\/strong> A significant real estate (RE) tax reform has entered into force in Lithuania. As your real estate broker, I have prepared this simple memo so that the new rules do not catch you by surprise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What changed in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important news is that new [laws\/regulations\/standards] took effect on January 1, 2026. <strong>machine evaluation data<\/strong>.
