Working in Poland or Lithuania? Support "Nasha Niva" — it's completely free for you, and we will be able to do more for Belarus and Belarusian culture!

Belarusians working in Poland or Lithuania – regardless of citizenship – can direct 1.2–1.5% of their income tax to the activities of public organizations when filing their mandatory tax declaration for the past year. We have prepared detailed instructions for you on how to support "Nasha Niva" without spending a single cent.

Poland (instructions for Lithuania below)

Tax residents of Poland are obliged to file tax declarations – PIT from February 15 to April 30 annually. However, the sooner you do this, the sooner you will receive a part of the tax paid by your employer on your behalf.

To do this, you need to visit the website podatki.gov.pl.

The website is available in three languages: Polish, English, and Ukrainian. After authorization, you will be redirected to epit.podatki.gov.pl, where the system will prompt you to fill out the necessary form.

To start filing the declaration, you need to click on Złóż PIT.

When filling out the declaration, the main thing is not to miss the item "1,5% podatku dla OPP" (transfer of 1.5% of the tax due to a public organization).

In the field "numer KRS wybranej organizacji" (KRS number of the chosen organization), enter the number 0000507234 — it corresponds to the Polish partner foundation FaniMani, which helps "Nasha Niva" collect a percentage of the tax.

Next, in the field "Cel szczegółowy do przekazania 1,5% podatku" (Specific purpose for transferring 1.5% of the tax), you need to enter the numbers 82197 — this is our unique organization number in the FaniMani system.

Here you need to be extremely careful, because if you do not enter these numbers, the FaniMani system will not know which organization you transferred the money to.

Afterwards, check the box «Wyrażam zgodę» (I agree) and click the «Zatwierdź» (Approve) button. Then continue filling out the declaration and submit it at the end when everything is ready.

Lithuania

To file a mandatory tax declaration in Lithuania, you need to log into the Electronic Declaration System (EDS), and then click on «Prisijungti prie EDS».

Next, you need to choose the system through which you will authorize into the EDS system.

In our example, this will be done via Swedbank, where you can select the Russian language for the interface.

After authorization in E-services, you need to select the VMI section and click "Log in".

After this, you will enter the EDS portal, where the declaration will be filled out.

To proceed with filling it out, you need to click on the globe icon.

This page is only available in Lithuanian, but further on, the interface language can be changed to Russian.

If you already have a Lithuanian residence permit from 2025 or earlier and work for a Lithuanian company, you are considered a permanent resident by the tax authorities in any case.

Next, you fill out the declaration by answering the questions in the text.

After you answer all questions, the system will prompt you to generate and submit the declaration, after which you will see the amount the state owes you, or the amount you need to pay extra.

"I want to support!"

Below, there will be a line stating that you have the opportunity to allocate a portion of your income tax.

There you need to click on "Я хачу падтрымаць" (I want to support).

At this stage, you need to click on "Я хочу поддержать" (I want to support)

Further on, the interface will only be in Lithuanian, but it will not be difficult to figure out. To continue filling it out, you need to click on the globe icon again on the EDS page.

Click on the globe and proceed

In the next step, click «Pradėti» (Start).

In the search bar, you need to enter the code of the organization you want to support by transferring 1.2% of the already paid income tax amount.

The number of "Nasha Niva" is 305965367. After entering our organization's code, you will see the name of our legal entity in Lithuania — Viešoji įstaiga «Nasha Niva Fund».

After selecting "Nasha Niva" (Viešoji įstaiga «Nasha Niva Fund») from the list, click on «Testi» (Continue).

In the next step, in the line «Mokesčio dalies dydis (procentais)» (Tax part size (in percent)), you enter the numbers 1,2.

Then click on «Išsaugoti» (Save).

Afterwards, you need to confirm your selection again and click on «Taip, teisingi» (Yes, correct).

Next, you will be asked if you want to send the request, to which you click on «Formuoti prašymą» (Submit application).

At the final stage, you will need to click on «Pateikti» (Submit) twice more. First in the lower left corner, and then in the pop-up window.

In this simple and completely free way for you, you can support "Nasha Niva" — a bastion of Belarusian culture and a source of information for all our people, both here and there.
