Against that stable licensing base, the regime is in an active tightening cycle: the GGR tax rate rose to 22 percent, minimum gambling age rose to 21, a phased advertising ban began, a new LAKIS technical-monitoring mandate took effect, and new bank-side payment-monitoring obligations were introduced. These converge toward a proposed 2029 mandatory non-cash gambler's card, while LPT is simultaneously gaining expanded enforcement powers under a market-supervision simplification package effective by May 2027. As a civil-law jurisdiction, Lithuania's enforcement theory rests on the statutory licensing stack, with LPT's domain-blocking ('Vasaris') and forthcoming payment-blocking mechanisms restricting access to unlicensed offshore operators.
