Open a Bank Account in Lithuania
Lithuania is an ideal banking location for companies incorporated in Estonia and neighbouring countries. Foreign companies incorporated in the EU and other high-income countries such as Singapore are eligible for an account.
Our banking connection offers a broad range of currencies, internet and mobile banking, trade finance, credit notes, among others. There are no minimum initial deposit or ongoing balance requirements.
Lithuania is part of the Single Euro Payments Area and provides International Bank Account Numbers (IBAN), meaning that businesses and individuals banking in Lithuania may enjoy low fees on transactions within the European Union.
All in all, Lithuania is an ideal option for foreign-owned EU and other onshore companies that wish to access EU banking services and do business within the EU.
We can help you open corporate accounts in Lithuania. Corporate Accounts are available for resident and non-resident companies. We invite you to carefully review the requirements and services to better understand if the banking services meet your needs.
Our banking support service is not just a mere introduction to the bank. We assist you in filling out the business questionnaires appropriately and help you understand and provide business details, commercial information and purpose/use of the bank account that a given bank wants to know in order to approve your account application. Banks want certainty and clarity on how the account will be used. Everything must be watertight. We will work with you to make sure there is minimal ‘back and forth’ and a smooth account opening process.
