Features of purchasing a ready-made company in Lithuania

Why Lithuania is a convenient jurisdiction for business in the EU

Lithuania is suitable for entrepreneurs who need a company in the eurozone, an account in EUR, access to SEPA payments, and a clear structure for working with European clients. The most common legal form used for these purposes is a UAB — a Lithuanian limited liability company.

Key advantages:

EU jurisdiction and eurozone: the company operates within the European legal framework and uses EUR.
UAB legal form: a clear corporate model with limited liability for shareholders.
Strong fintech ecosystem: Lithuania is widely used for payment, IT, and online businesses.
SEPA payments: convenient for transactions with clients and partners in the EU.
PVM status: the ability to conduct VAT transactions after verification or registration.
Flexibility for online businesses: suitable for SaaS, e-commerce, consulting, marketing, and B2B services.

Why it is important to verify the account and PVM status before purchasing

A ready-made company in Lithuania can reduce the time required to launch a business, but its corporate, tax, and banking history must be verified before purchase. Particular attention should be paid to the account, PVM registration, authorised signatories, and future business model.

Before the transaction, we verify:

the company’s current status in the Register of Legal Entities
the legal entity code and the UAB’s corporate history
the availability or absence of PVM registration
the bank or payment account, authorised signatories, and access rights
tax compliance, debts, penalties, or overdue reporting
the history of the owners, director, and registered office
whether the company is suitable for the buyer’s intended activities

Why a director / vadovas is required for a Lithuanian company

In a Lithuanian UAB, the company’s manager is usually referred to as the vadovas. The director represents the company before the bank, register, tax authorities, accountant, and counterparties.

A properly appointed director helps to:

sign agreements, invoices, and corporate resolutions
update information in the register after the purchase
complete banking or payment institution KYC checks
interact with the accountant and tax authorities
maintain PVM status and reporting
avoid delays when changing the account, registered office, or corporate structure

What guarantees the buyer receives

The agreement for the purchase and sale of shares in the UAB specifies:

confirmation of the company’s current status in the Lithuanian register
confirmation that the corporate documents and legal entity code are valid
confirmation that there are no hidden debts, legal disputes, or tax claims
verification of the bank or payment account
transfer of documents, resolutions, access rights, and corporate control
the seller’s liability for undisclosed obligations
confidentiality of the new beneficial owner’s data

Taxation of a Lithuanian company

Basic tax parameters for a UAB:

Corporate income tax: the standard profit tax rate is 16%.
Reduced rate: a reduced rate may apply to certain small companies subject to the conditions of Lithuanian legislation.
PVM / VAT: the standard rate is 21%; reduced rates of 9% and 5% apply to certain goods and services.
Dividend tax: a rate of 15% generally applies unless exemptions or tax treaties apply.
Accounting and reporting: the company maintains accounting records and files tax returns and financial statements.

Why you should contact Vermus specialists

Frequently asked questions about purchasing a company in Lithuania

Can a Lithuanian company be purchased remotely?

Yes. The transfer of a UAB can be arranged remotely through a power of attorney, electronic signing, document translations, and support from Lithuanian partners. A personal visit to Lithuania is usually not required.

How long does it take to purchase a ready-made company in Lithuania?

The basic company transfer usually takes 7–14 business days. Where the bank or payment institution requests renewed KYC checks, the timeframe depends on the ownership structure and the company’s future activities.

Does the company have PVM status?

Not every ready-made UAB has active PVM registration. Before the purchase, we verify the company’s status and explain whether it is suitable for VAT transactions with counterparties in the EU.

Does the bank account transfer with the company?

The account may remain with the company, but the bank or EMI may update its KYC records after the change of ownership. We verify the account status, authorised signatories, and access rights, and prepare the documents required to update the company’s details.

Can the director be changed after the purchase?

Yes. The director / vadovas can be changed after the company transfer. We assist with preparing the resolutions, updating the information in the register, and transferring corporate control.

Is a Lithuanian UAB suitable for IT and fintech projects?

Yes. Lithuania is often used for IT, SaaS, payment, e-commerce, and service-based business models due to its eurozone membership, SEPA payments, and developed financial infrastructure.

Do the company’s debts transfer to the new owner?

The legal entity retains its history, so any potential liabilities remain with the company. This is why, before the transaction, we verify its tax records, account, legal proceedings, reporting, and corporate documents.

What taxes does a Lithuanian company pay?

A UAB pays corporate income tax, PVM where registered, taxes on salaries or payments to the director, and must also file accounting and financial reports.
