Put simply, opening a business account with HSBC UAE is a realistic goal for a well-prepared company, and preparation is exactly what GoldenKey provides. A UAE business account is the step that turns your licence into a working company, and HSBC UAE is a sound candidate for many of the companies we form. Put simply, payments between Lithuania and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, euro (EUR) transfers settle quickly and UAE banks are familiar with Lithuanian business profiles. Importantly, the most common businesses Lithuanians open through GoldenKey are in fintech, laser technology, food exports and logistics, although HSBC UAE supports almost any activity.
Why HSBC UAE
HSBC UAE is known for global network, international payments, multi-currency accounts and corporate treasury services, which is why we shortlist it for companies with that profile. For most clients, account opening at HSBC UAE is a compliance process, not a sales process: the bank wants to understand who you are, what you sell, who pays you and where the money comes from. For Lithuanians, the practical advantages of HSBC UAE are the ease of travel between Lithuania and the UAE, English is the business language, and a banking system that processes euro (EUR) transfers daily.

Most UAE banks apply a minimum average balance or a monthly fee below it. GoldenKey confirms the current HSBC UAE terms for your package before you apply.

Some banks consider non-resident company accounts, but most prefer a resident signatory. GoldenKey usually processes your investor visa before the bank application for that reason.

Yes. Lithuanians can own the full share capital of a HSBC UAE company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
How long does the process take for Lithuanian applicants?
As we tell every client, processing for Lithuanians follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from Lithuania that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
