Lithuania Crypto License - Your Guide to Launch a Crypto Exchange

In Lithuania, obtaining a crypto license is crucial for businesses dealing with cryptocurrencies. The regulatory framework ensures compliance with EU directives, focusing on anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) measures. Applicants must adhere to strict financial, operational, and security standards, and are often required to establish a physical presence in Lithuania.

In Lithuania, companies providing virtual asset services mainly need two key licenses:
 

  1. Cryptocurrency Exchange License: This allows a company to manage transactions converting virtual currencies to FIAT and vice versa. Additionally, it authorizes the company to enable digital currency exchanges between users, earning revenue via service fees.
     

  2. Cryptocurrency Wallet License: This license permits a firm to securely hold clients' digital currencies in their wallets, also giving the firm authority over the private keys associated with these wallets, ensuring the secure handling of digital assets.

Lithuania Crypto Regulation & MiCa

Initiating a cryptocurrency venture in Lithuania is streamlined through the establishment of a UAB, a type of limited liability company. This framework is optimal for budding crypto exchanges or custodial services, requiring an initial capital of €125,000. An upfront payment of €31,250 is mandated, while the remaining 75% (€93,750) can be infused over the subsequent year.

We value diverse leadership and are open to directors from any country. However, to maintain the integrity of our crypto environment, it's imperative that the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) officer is based in Lithuania.

Lithuania's approach to granting a Crypto Exchange License is both progressive and economical. Notably, there's a swift establishment timeline ranging between 30-60 days. Additionally, having a local bank account is essential, and our Consulting24 team is primed to assist you in this regard. Lithuania's proactive stance makes it a top destination for cryptocurrency endeavors.
 

MiCA regulation
Incorporating the MiCA Directive's pivotal elements, Lithuania ensures that the cryptocurrency license is passportable within the EU. This means businesses licensed in Lithuania can operate seamlessly across all EU member states, amplifying the country's appeal as a prime hub for cryptocurrency endeavors.
