Last verified today against epaslaugos.lt’s own Terms · UK, US, and EU rights covered below
The short answer
epaslaugos.lt has no subscription or membership fees, so no subscription refund applies. State fees (valstybės rinkliava) paid for a specific public service through the portal are refunded by Lithuania's tax office (VMI), not by the portal. You file form FR0781 in Mano VMI and attach a certificate from the institution that provided the service, stating why the fee should be refunded. Court stamp duty (žyminis mokestis) works the same way through FR0781 but needs a final court ruling, and other service-specific payments should be raised first with the institution that provided the service.

“Mokesčių mokėtojas, pageidaujantis susigrąžinti valstybės rinkliavos mokesčio permoką, turi pateikti institucijos, suteikusios paslaugą, pažymą, kurioje turi būti nurodytos valstybės rinkliavos grąžinimo priežastys.”

How long does a epaslaugos.lt refund take?
Most merchants agree to a straightforward refund within 1 to 3 working days of a well-written email request. Once agreed, the money itself takes another 3 to 5 working days to land, that part is card-network processing and no merchant can skip it. If nothing has arrived 10 working days after a written “refund approved”, reply on the same thread asking for the ARN (acquirer reference number), which your bank can trace.

Refund FAQ for epaslaugos.lt
The sources show no subscription or recurring charge. epaslaugos.lt (Elektroniniai valdžios vartai) is Lithuania's state e-government gateway, run by the State Digital Solutions Agency (VSSA). The only payments are one-off state fees or charges for particular public services, paid through the VIISP payment service when you order them. If you see a recurring charge labelled with this name, it is probably not from the portal. Check with your bank.
