180 notifications since 1 January 2020 named Lithuania as a country of origin, rank 35 of 163 origins. 53 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 28 in the 365 days before, up 89%. under 1% were border rejections, where the consignment was stopped at the EU's outer border, against 30% for all origins.
Lithuania is an EU member state, so its products reach other member states without a border check; its notifications come from checks on the market, company checks and complaints rather than border rejections.
The finding reported most often was Salmonella (63 notifications, 35%), then Listeria monocytogenes (34). The product category with most notifications was poultry meat (44). 48% carried a serious risk decision, against 52% for all origins.
Counts start on 1 January 2020 and run to 8 November 2026, the day the list was last read. A notification that names two countries of origin counts for each. Findings come from our word list matched against the EU subject line, which is never shown; 96% of all notifications match it, the rest count as other finding. Each reference links to the official record on RASFF Window. How this works.
