Not for a business registered in France. As of 7 October 2025, Lili is a United States banking platform that opens accounts only for a business registered in the United States, and it has no euro account for a French company. A France based founder who registers a United States business can apply, since Lili accepts owners from many countries including France, but the account itself is a United States dollar account. For a company registered only in France, the alternatives below point to providers that serve France.

Does Lili serve business customers in France?

Not directly. Lili is a United States financial technology platform that provides business banking, invoicing and accounting tools, with banking services provided through a United States partner bank. The account is held in US dollars and is available only to a registered United States business. Lili does accept business owners based abroad, including in France, who form or already hold a United States business, and such owners can apply remotely with a foreign passport and an Employer Identification Number rather than a United States Social Security Number. There is no euro account for a company registered in France, so a French business without a United States entity cannot open a Lili account. As of 7 October 2025.

Eligibility for businesses in France

Lili requires a registered United States business, such as an LLC, corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship or non profit. Owners based in France are accepted only when they hold that United States business, and they apply with a foreign passport and an Employer Identification Number. A company registered only in France, with no United States entity, is not eligible. Confirm whether your structure qualifies, and remember the account is a United States dollar account rather than a French euro account. Verify with the provider

What it costs locally

Lili publishes its plans in US dollars for the United States market, with a free tier and paid tiers that add accounting and tax features. There is no France price list because the account is not offered to businesses registered in France, and pricing applies to the United States business that holds the account. As of 7 October 2025

What local users report

Lili is used in France mainly by founders who run a United States business, for example to hold and spend US dollars, rather than by companies that operate only in France with a euro account. Businesses registered in France that want a euro business account with invoicing and bookkeeping generally use French banks or European providers that serve the market. Confirm the current position with the provider before relying on it.

Lili does not offer a euro business account for a company registered in France as of 7 October 2025, and serves France based owners only through a registered United States business. Verify directly with the provider. Providers confirmed available in France are listed on the France country guide.
