Customs brokerage is performed in accordance with the requirements set by the government of Lithuania and European Union and other international requirements. Customs brokerage services are required for freight transportation to Lithuania or other member states of the European Union from Russia, other Customs Union countries or the USA. In such cases, required documents must be prepared, and only a customs broker can do that. A customs broker forwards documents to the customs – a public authority that grants goods an access to a free trade area – the member states of the EU.
