Dear Investors,
We have some great news for all non-Lithuania residents. Starting from April, 2022 we will provide an opportunity for non-Lithuania residents to reduce the withholding tax.
How is foreigners / non-Lithuania residents' income taxed?
If you are a foreign investor or non-Lithuania resident your interest income (from rent and capital growth) earned on InRento is currently taxed at 15% tax rate. Meaning that if you earn 1000 EUR in income from interest, you will be taxed for 150 EUR and you will receive 850 EUR. However, please note that it’s possible to reduce this tax- read below.
Income earned from late payments and penalties are not taxed, meaning that the income that you earn does not have any tax withholding.
