Data Sources

Lithuania has one data source: the Register of Legal Entities (Juridinių asmenų registras, JAR) open data, published by Registrų centras at registrucentras.lt. Three extracts feed the integration, all regenerated daily:

Registered entities: every entity currently on the register, with its legal form, legal status and status date.
Deregistered entities: entities removed from the register, with the removal date.
Share capital: registered share capital for the legal forms that must declare one.

Data reflects the latest daily extract, so a change filed with the register can take up to 24 hours to appear. There is no live query to the register.

Company Identifiers

Query Identifiers

Identifier	Format	Example	Notes
Juridinio asmens kodas	9 digits	`123033512`	The legal-entity code. Assigned by Registrų centras at registration and used for every entity type.

The legal-entity code is not the VAT number. The Lithuanian PVM code is issued separately by the tax authority and cannot be derived from it. MAXIMA LT, for instance, is entity 123033512 but VAT LT230335113. Pass the 9-digit legal-entity code; VAT numbers are not accepted, and are not published in this register’s open data.

Quirks & Gotchas

Quirk	Details
Use onboarding mode	Lithuania has a single non-authoritative mode. Pass `"mode": "onboarding"` on `/v2/company`; the default verification path has no source to resolve.
No live register access	All data comes from daily bulk extracts. Real-time queries are not available.
Anonymised names for IĮ / TŪB / KŪB	The register redacts the names of individual enterprises and partnerships in its open data, because those names contain the owner’s or partners’ personal names. Around 13,500 entities are affected. They return the bare legal-form label as their `legalName` (for example `Individuali įmonė`), and are findable by legal-entity code but not by name.
No officers, shareholders or beneficial owners	The register’s open data publishes only counts: how many governing bodies an entity has and how many participants, split by resident/foreign and natural/legal person. No names or percentages are published anywhere in the open data.
Status “no legal proceedings” means healthy	`Teisinis statusas neįregistruotas` is the normal state of a sound company (98% of the register). It means no restructuring, insolvency or dissolution proceeding is registered, and maps to `ACTIVE`.
Pre-euro share capital	Capital last declared before Lithuania adopted the euro in 2015 is still recorded in litas. It is returned with currency `LTL` and is not converted.
Municipality-only addresses	A small number of entities register an address that names only a municipality (for example `Vilniaus m. sav.`). These return `region` and no `city`.

Mappings

Company Status

Lithuania publishes an official legal-status classifier. An entity carries at most one status at a time.

Local status	English	Standardized status	Active
Teisinis statusas neįregistruotas	No legal proceedings	`ACTIVE`	Yes
Reorganizuojamas	Under reorganization	`ACTIVE`	Yes
Pertvarkomas	Under reformation	`ACTIVE`	Yes
Restruktūrizuojamas	Under restructuring	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`	Yes
Bankrutuojantis	Going bankrupt	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`	Yes
Bankrutavęs	Bankrupt	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`	No
Likviduojamas	Under liquidation	`PENDING_DISSOLUTION`	Yes
Inicijuojamas likvidavimas	Liquidation being initiated	`PENDING_DISSOLUTION`	Yes
Likviduojamas dėl bankroto	Liquidation due to bankruptcy	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`	Yes
Nepersiregistravęs	Not reregistered	`INACTIVE_NOT_CLOSED`	No
Išregistruotas	Removed from the register	`CLOSED`	No
Likviduotas	Liquidated	`CLOSED`	No

An entity under liquidation is still on the register and still reported as active until the proceeding completes. See the pricing page for the complete list of 30 status labels.

Legal Forms

Mažoji bendrija (MB)	Small Partnership	Limited Liability Company
Akcinė bendrovė (AB)	Public Limited Liability Company	Corporation

Individual enterprise with an anonymised name

The register redacts the registered name of individual enterprises and partnerships, publishing the bare legal-form label instead. Topograph relays exactly what the register publishes and never substitutes a name.
