Reviewed by Daniel VaknineAdd each material you place on the Lithuania market and its yearly weight for a sourced ballpark. The full reference below lists every published rate, including unit, fixed, formula and quote-only methods.
A producer responsibility organisation (PRO) collects packaging fees and reports recycling obligations. Choose the organisation named in your contract or registration. Gramta never guesses one for you.
The number above is a rough guide for one scheme. Filing for real means doing this for every material and every country you sell into, adding the extra fees on top, and getting it exactly right, year after year.
Send us your sales and your packaging details once. Gramta works out the fees for every country you sell in and keeps each report up to date and ready to file.
Get started with GramtaLithuania runs a competitive producer-responsibility system, so a business chooses and pays one PRO. 2 are active in the dataset: GAMTOS ATEITIS and ZALIASIS TASKAS. Their material scopes and prices differ, so the right one is the PRO named in your Lithuania registration or contract. Registration and the definitive list of approved organisations sit with the national register, linked in the organisations section below.
Fees are set per kilogram of each material and vary by recyclability. In Lithuania, 2 routes publish weight-based rates you can estimate in the calculator above; unit-based, fixed and formula charges are listed in full below with their sources.
A producer responsibility organisation (PRO) is the organisation a business joins and pays to meet packaging recycling obligations. Some countries instead use a government fee system. Use the name from your contract or registration.

Packaging EPR fees in Lithuania are charged per kilogram of each material, with the rate set by the material and often its recyclability grade. The total also depends on the organisation or government system you use, the packaging scope and the weight. This page lists 33 current pricing records and calculates the weight-based rates directly; negotiated or unpublished prices are marked, never guessed.
Use the producer responsibility organisation named in your Lithuania registration or contract. The known options in Lithuania are GAMTOS ATEITIS and ZALIASIS TASKAS. Where several compete, their prices and packaging scopes differ, so Gramta lists them but never selects a default for a business.
Packaging EPR in Lithuania is overseen by a national register and authority, linked from the organisations section of this page. You register there, then join or contract a producer responsibility organisation to meet the obligation. Gramta links the official register so you can confirm the current approved organisations yourself.
Most sellers in Lithuania face both frameworks. Packaging EPR sets the recycling fees on this page; the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) adds design rules and a Declaration of Conformity that applies EU-wide, Lithuania included. They run in parallel, and a product's recyclability grade increasingly drives the EPR fee under both.
The Lithuania dataset was reviewed 11 Aug 2026. Every fee line also carries its own effective period, review date and primary-source link. Expired fee lines are excluded from the current calculator.
