As of early 2026, Latvia is actively planning to implement the minimum requirements of the Pay Transparency Directive by creating a new regulatory act, according to the Latvian Ministry of Welfare. However, the legislative process appears to be in the initial stages, with no draft legislation publicly available as of now. Several curated third, party accounts agree that Latvia has expressed intentions to align with the Pay Transparency Directive through new regulations. Despite this, there is a noticeable lack of concrete legislative drafts or detailed governmental communications regarding the implementation timeline. There is some divergence in reports about Latvia's progress. While some sources indicate that work is underway to draft the new regulatory act, others highlight that no activity has been officially communicated or documented, leading to uncertainty about the timelines and details of the upcoming legislation.
