\n

1. \u00a0 <\/b>Is it obligatory for entities to submit the data from consignment notes to i.VAZ? <\/b><\/p>\n

There is an obligation to submit the data from consignment notes to the Lithuanian Tax Authority if all the conditions mentioned below are met<\/u>:
1. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 goods are loaded and transported by road transport means and only within the territory of the Lithuania<\/u>;
2. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 both the entity sending and the entity receiving goods are natural persons or the entities that carry out economic activity;
3. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 there are business relations between the sender and the receiver, and\/or the shipper, and\/or the transport organization, and\/or another authorized person.<\/p>\n

It is not obligatory<\/u> to submit the data from consignment notes to the Tax Authorities if:
1. \u00a0 the sender and receiver of goods is the same person;
2. \u00a0 the sender of goods is not registered as a VAT taxpayer;
3. \u00a0 the sender of goods is registered as a VAT taxpayer, whose total earnings received from goods\/services supplied have not exceeded EUR 45.000 in the previous 12 months;

The data of Consignment notes can be provided to i.VAZ subsystem in three ways:
1. \u00a0 by entering the data from consignment notes directly to i.VAZ via user interface;
2. \u00a0 by submitting the data from consignment notes file to i.VAZ in XML format;
3. \u00a0 \u00a0by using the web service intended for the submission of i.VAZ data file.<\/p>\n

3. What to do if the data from consignment notes could not be submitted to i.VAZ subsystem due to technical problems?<\/b><\/p>\n

If the company decided to submit the data from consignment notes to i.VAZ based on advance prepared files (XML format) or automatically (by web services) but until 1st <\/sup>October of 2016 the company did not fully prepare its systems to work, first of all the following steps should be initiated:
1. \u00a0 \u00a0 become i.VAZ user;
2. \u00a0 \u00a0 update its contact details in i.VAZ;
3. \u00a0 \u00a0 when the update of contact details will be finished, the password will be generated automatically and it will be sent to the company. In this way the company will be able to connect to the back-up portal a.VAZ at https:\/\/avaz.vmi.lt<\/a>;
4. \u00a0 \u00a0 while connected to a.VAZ, the company can indicate that from the 1st<\/sup> October, the company is not able to submit the data of consignment notes due to technical problems;
5. \u00a0 \u00a0 after registering above mentioned problem, there will be created back-up registration number \u201cARN\u201d, which could be used for all deliveries and provided during transportation roadside checks carried out by Road Transport Inspectors. The entity may use this registration number until the tax payer\u2019s accounting system will be prepared to submit consignment notes to i.VAZ. <\/p>\n

The retrospective submission of data of consignment notes which were executed while the tax payer was updating its systems will not be required. <\/p>\n
