    Dear members of the association, colleagues,

    With each passing year, we become even more convinced that stability is a luxury that is increasingly difficult to expect in today’s world. The year 2025 proved this to us once again: geopolitical tensions, to put it very diplomatically, have not subsided, and the winds of change have been blowing particularly strongly in Lithuania’s political and social spheres.

A new survey of Lithuanian residents shows that people have a fairly clear understanding of the cost of tax evasion to the state and society: 46% of respondents believe it reduces funding for public services, 43% say it encourages unfair competition, and 41% think it increases price differences between honest and dishonest businesses. Yet in everyday situations, the shadow economy remains close to consumers — from “envelope wages” to unrecorded payments in the services sector. The gap between awareness and everyday habits is being highlighted during the transparency campaign “No Country for Shadow” held in Lithuania.
