Accessibility law in Lithuania: are you provably compliant?

Supervision is split across four authorities, with the consumer protection service VVTAT as lead regulator (e-commerce among others), alongside the transport safety administration, communications regulator RRT and media regulator LRTK. As of mid-2026 VVTAT is firmly in an advisory phase (guidance, advising businesses); no publicly confirmed EAA fine yet. The statutory toolkit, fines, supply bans, binding instructions, exists and is ready for use.

Lithuania transposed the EAA (oversight bodies include ANTA, the Disability Rights Protection Agency). The State Digital Solutions Agency (VSSA, formerly IVPK) runs accessibility evaluations of public websites/apps under the Web Accessibility Directive (in 2023, e.g. 131 sites via the simplified method plus 17 e-service portals and 10 mobile apps via the in-depth method), issuing remediation orders for identified shortcomings. NO solid WCAG/accessibility-specific non-compliance percentage is publicly available; the figures that do circulate (e.g. 89%/70%/68% across 1,017 sites) concern GENERAL website requirements, not digital accessibility, and are therefore not usable as an accessibility statistic.
