e-Residency of Lithuania is a program launched by Lithuania on 1 January 2021.[1][2] The program will allow non-Lithuanian citizens to access services provided by the Lithuanian government and other institutions, such as company formation, declaration of taxes and opening of bank accounts. It provides the e-residents with a smart card, similar to the Lithuanian identity card, which can be used for electronic identification and electronic signature.
The e-residency scheme is aimed towards location-independent entrepreneurs such as software engineers and it is modelled after the e-Residency of Estonia.[3]
