Why is it worth having a personal bank account in Lithuania?

Geographical diversification of savings can significantly improve the security of your finances. By having a personal bank account in Lithuania, you will avoid the unpleasant consequences of having your funds blocked by Polish administrative authorities or bailiffs. A personal bank account in Lithuania also means independence from your home country’s unstable economic and political situation. After all, a private account in a Lithuanian bank cannot be seized by the authorities of other countries.

For example, in the event of an economic crisis in your country of residence, your personal bank account in Lithuania may not be blocked, and you will still be able to distribute funds freely. If, however, you are concerned about a bailiff seizure, your personal account in Lithuania will still be subject to Lithuanian regulations; thus, a native bailiff will not be able to block the funds, but only to apply to Lithuanian authorities with a motion which will be considered according to their procedures.
