Opening an account in a bank in Lithuania

Economic crises of recent years contribute to the manifestation of instability in both the economy and the banking system in particular. In such circumstances, opening a bank account on the territory of other states has a number of advantages. The main ones are stability and accessibility of funds, as well as convenient access to invested/deposited money.

The growing popularity of offshore accounts in Russia successfully implements the desire of clients to open a bank account in Lithuania and securely keep money. Moreover, the banks of Lithuania allow to open an account for both residents and non-residents of the republic. Opening an account is also possible for natural persons.

The main bank of the country is the Bank of Lithuania that is a member of the European system. It constitutes a monetary policy and supervises commercial banks and other credit institutions. Since 2015, monetary unit of Lithuania is the euro.

Now there are 7 commercial banks, branches and representative offices of foreign banks in the country. Our company works with AB "Swedbank".
