The main advantages of having an EMI license in Lithuania are: The minimum amount of the authorized capital for the establishment of electronic money institution \u2013 350 000 EUR. Additionally a license issued in Lithuania may be recognized in other countries of the European Economic Area (EEA). In other words, a license issued in Lithuania allows an electronic money institution to operate in other EEA countries after the notification procedure. An important advantage is electronic money institutions can join the SEPA payment infrastructure and offer their customers personal accounts with IBAN<\/a> codes. The license can be issued within 3 months (about 6-9 months faster than in other EEA countries), and all license documents can be submitted in English. The Bank of Lithuania offers the opportunity to test a business idea in a real environment without obtaining full authorization (the \u201cregulatory sandbox\u201d mode). The main difference is that the establishment of electronic money, leading a limited activity, does not require a minimum equity capital.<\/p>\n
