This registration statement (this “Registration Statement”) is filed by Lichen International Limited, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Registrant”) to register securities issuable pursuant to the Lichen International Limited 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the “2025 Equity Incentive Plan”). The securities registered hereby consist of 2,500,000 series A ordinary shares, US$0.008 par value per share of the Registrant (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), which represent the number of Class A Ordinary Shares that were authorized under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate number of additional shares which may be offered and issued to prevent dilution from share splits, share dividends or similar transactions as provided in the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. Any Class A Ordinary Shares covered by an award granted under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (or portion of an award) that terminates, expires, lapses or repurchased for any reason will be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining the maximum aggregate number of Class A Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the 2025 Equity Incentive Plan.
