Summary

Lithuania’s electronic identity landscape includes the privately operated Smart-ID smartphone app, SIM-based Mobile-ID, and the state-issued national identity card, with Smart-ID reported to have the largest published user base at 1.86 million users in October 2026. Smart-ID and Mobile-ID were rated High assurance by Lithuania’s Communications Regulatory Authority in 2024, although neither is EU-notified under eIDAS, while the national ID card has held EU-notified High status since 2020. Lithuania’s AML law permits several remote identification methods, including High or Substantial assurance eIDs, qualified electronic signatures, video identification, and payment-based checks, though businesses are advised to confirm the applicable legal route with regulators. The material recommends offering Smart-ID and Mobile-ID alongside document-based verification for users without Lithuanian eIDs, noting that eID sign-ins can provide signed identity attributes such as name, birth date, and personal code but not a portrait or address. It also highlights upcoming EU Digital Identity Wallet obligations, with Member States expected to provide wallets by December 2026 and certain businesses required to accept them at a user’s request from December 2027.
