Lithuania's Finance Minister amended the Financial Instruments Implementation RulesE TAR approved by order No. 1K-326 of 16 October 2014. Order No. 1K-306 of 5 October 2026 restates points 54 and 63 of the rules
E TAR, which govern project implementers working with 2014–2020 EU-funds financial instruments.
Under point 54, a project implementer sends the monitoring committee members data on financial-instrument implementation progressE TAR, using a form agreed with the committee, within 15 working days after each reporting month ends
E TAR, delivered to the email address each member indicates. The prior wording allowed 14 days
E TAR, so the amendment both lengthens the window and counts it in working days.
Point 63 governs payment claims. An implementer files payment claims with the CPVA through the DMS — or in writing where the implementer is an international financial institution — using the form in Annex 6 to the Project Administration and Financing Rules and following the payment-claim schedule. With the second and later claims the implementer also reports monitoring-indicator achievement and eligible expenditure incurred, including the implementer's and the financial-instrument manager's management costs or fees and, where the financing contract requires it, the auditor's factual-findings report prepared under the international related-services standards.
The CPVA verifies indicator achievement and project expenditure in full or by sampling expenditure-supporting and payment-proof documents under its sampling methodology agreed with the managing and certifying authorities, and confirms expenditure eligibility. The final payment claim carries all remaining expenditure for which eligibility is sought under Article 42 of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013; it was due by 31 January 2024, or by 31 March 2024 where the financing contract required an auditor's report on management costs or fees.
For implementers whose project contract commits them to reach monitoring-indicator values after 31 December 2023, the restated point moves the reporting tail: they notify the CPVA of indicator achievement through the DMS (or in writing for an international financial institution) by 31 December 2026E TAR. The previous redaction set that date at 31 August 2026
E TAR. Within 50 days of receiving the information the CPVA verifies the data in full or by sampling the supporting documents under the agreed methodology, satisfies itself that the indicator values were reached, and updates the achievement data in SFMIS2014.
Legal basis: order No. 1K-306, amending order No. 1K-326 and the Financial Instruments Implementation Rules.
Project implementers committed to reaching monitoring-indicator values after 31 December 2023 notify the CPVA of indicator achievement via the DMS by 31 December 2026.
