Notes to Financial Statements
Noncontrolling Interest Disclosure [Text Block]	NOTE 2 – NONCONTROLLING INTEREST In January 2025, the Company established a joint venture Nantong JiTRI LiqTech Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd (the “JV”) in which it holds a 90% ownership interest. The remaining 10% is owned by an unrelated third party. The primary focus of the JV is to develop and commercialize systems for the marine water treatment market in China. The JV is fully consolidated in the Company’s condensed financial statements, and the 10% noncontrolling interest is presented separately in the consolidated balance sheet within equity and in the consolidated statement of operations as a component of net income (loss). As part of the JV agreement, LiqTech has agreed to make our technology utilization available to the JV and to transfer the utilization rights necessary for operations in the marine scrubber market in China. In February 2025, the JV received R&D funding of RMB 8,000,000 (approximately USD 1.1 million) from the JV partner to support capability development and system construction. The funding is classified as a long-term loan in the financial statements and may be increased to up to RMB 10,000,000 within 12 months if certain technical and commercial milestones are achieved. The loan bears a fixed annual interest rate of 12% per annum and has no set maturity date. At the sole discretion of LiqTech, the loan may be either converted into equity of the JV in connection with future capital increases or equity injections, or it may be repaid in full with accrued interest. There is no separate default rate beyond the stated contractual interest, and no mandatory repayment terms exist unless elected by LiqTech. As of June 30, 2025, the noncontrolling interest in the JV amounted to $2,972 and reflects the third party’s share of the JV’s net assets and net loss for the period.
