Taxes can be a major headache for any business owner. But Georgia aims to change that. It offers a tax system focused on simplicity and attracting foreign businesses. Yes, Georgia stands out with one of the lowest tax rates in the world and is the go-to destination for businesses to optimize their taxes.
This guide from Gegidze will break down the details of the Georgian tax landscape step by step.
Understanding Georgian tax rates
Corporate income tax
A tax charged on the profits earned by corporations, limited liability companies (LLCs), and other similar business entities.
One of the lowest corporate income tax rates (Profit Tax) in Georgia
In the country of Georgia, both resident and non-resident enterprises are subject to Corporate Income Tax (CIT) on their income at a flat rate of 15%.
For LLCs and other legal entities within Georgia, CIT applies only when profits are distributed. This means that profits reinvested into the company remain untaxed.
P.S. banks, microfinance organizations, and similar financial institutions are subject to a slightly higher 20% CIT rate.
What triggers CIT payments?
Georgia's unique system focuses on how you use your profits rather than taxing them immediately. Here's when the CIT typically kicks in:
Profit Distributions: When you pay out dividends to shareholders, those amounts are generally subject to CIT (with some exceptions).
Non-Business Expenses: Spending money on things unrelated to growing your business could trigger CIT.
Giving Things Away: Free products, services, and even unexplained inventory shortages are treated like profit distributions.
Excessive Spending: Those "representative expenses" (for client entertainment, etc.) have limits – exceed them, and you might get taxed on the extra.
It applies to:
Resident companies (those headquartered in Georgia) on their worldwide income
If your business is headquartered in Georgia, you're considered a resident company. This means you'll pay the corporate tax rate (CIT) in Georgia on all your income, even that earned in other countries.
Example: A Tbilisi-based software startup lands clients in Europe. Despite the international source of profits, they'll still pay Georgia business tax rates on their entire income.
2. Non-resident companies on the income they generate within Georgia
If you operate a business outside of Georgia but make money within the country (and have a physical presence like an office or branch), you'll pay CIT only on that Georgia-sourced income. It's a fair approach, ensuring you contribute taxes where you're actively doing business.
Example: A UK company establishes a manufacturing branch in Batumi. They'll pay CIT exclusively on the profits generated by that specific Batumi operation.
Special tax statuses
Virtual Zone Companies: Companies operating within designated "Virtual Zones" enjoy a 0% CIT rate. It applies mainly to specific IT-related activities.
Free Industrial Zones (FIZ): Businesses established within a FIZ are also exempt from CIT, they are tax-free in Georgia. (0%).
International Company Status: Companies holding this status benefit from a reduced 5% CIT rate upon profit distribution.
Let's get practical
Company A (Resident): Decides to distribute 20% of its profits as dividends. That portion gets taxed at the standard 15% CIT rate.
Company B (Non-Resident): Incurs some expenses that aren't directly related to its business operations in Georgia. Those costs would also be subject to the 15% CIT rate.
Aspect | Detail |
General Tax Rate | 15% |
For Financial Institutions | 20% |
Resident Companies | Taxed on worldwide income |
Non-Resident Companies | Taxed on income generated within Georgia |

Withholding corporate taxes in Georgia
When non-residents earn certain types of income from sources within Georgia, the country withholds a portion as an upfront tax payment. Here's a breakdown of the key areas:
Dividends
Dividends paid to non-resident entities are typically subject to a 5% withholding tax.
This rate might be reduced if Georgia has a double taxation with the entity's home country.
Interest
Interest income earned by non-residents from Georgian sources is also subject to a 5% withholding tax.
Similar to dividends, this rate may be lowered if a tax treaty applies.
Royalties
Royalties paid to non-residents for the use of property or rights in Georgia are taxed at a withholding rate of 5%.
Tax treaties can potentially provide for a reduced rate.
Other withholding taxes
Other types of payments to non-residents have specific withholding tax percentages in Georgia:
Oil and gas subcontractor income: Generally 4%
Income from international transportation/communication: Generally 10%
Income from services rendered in Georgia: 10%
Certain payments to entities in 'blacklisted' countries: 15%

Key points about VAT in Georgia
Standard Rate: Georgia's VAT rate is currently 18%.
What's Taxed: VAT generally applies to anything sold in Georgia as part of a business activity. However, there are specific exemptions.
Location Matters: Where goods are located, and where a service is provided or received, are crucial factors for determining what's taxed. There are special rules for businesses operating across borders.
Registration: If your business's turnover (sales) exceeds 100,000 Georgian lari in 12 months, you're generally required to register as a VAT payer. However, you can apply for a VAT payer registration right after starting the business operations.
When VAT Applies: Typically, VAT becomes due when you supply goods or services. It also applies to advance payments you receive.
Exemptions and special cases
Exempt Supplies: Certain goods and services, such as specific financial or medical-related items, might be VAT-exempt.
Reverse-Charge VAT: If you're a Georgian VAT payer receiving services from a non-resident, you may be responsible for paying the VAT.
Digital Services: Businesses based outside Georgia, but providing digital services to Georgian consumers, likely need to register and comply with Georgian VAT rules.
VAT for digital businesses
If you provide digital services to Georgian consumers without being established in Georgia, you could have VAT obligations. These rules are relatively new, so it's crucial to stay updated.
Here's what triggers VAT:
Payments for your services go through a Georgian financial institution.
The consumer is located in Georgia.
The purchase is made using a device with a Georgian IP address.
The purchase uses a phone number with a Georgian country code.

Special Permissions: Certain products may require additional permits to be imported. These permits typically cost 30 GEL to obtain.
Payment Deadlines: Import taxes are usually due within 5 days of your goods arriving at customs, though a different timeframe may be given at the time.

Small shipments valued under 300 GEL are fully exempt from both import tax and VAT.
Crypto tax in Georgia
Georgia's crypto-friendly tax system makes it attractive for holders. Individual tax residents generally enjoy 0% tax on crypto trading profits, thanks to Georgia's territorial taxation and the classification of crypto as non-Georgian sourced income. The country also offers easy liquidation of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies into fiat currency, with some providers even facilitating direct exchange with commercial banks.
Ownership and Trading: Holding and trading crypto is legal in Georgia. Currently, for individual traders, tax rates on gains are generally 0%.
Crypto Mining Hub: Georgia's cheap hydroelectric power and minimal regulation make it a popular crypto mining location.
Legal Tender Status: While the Georgian Lari (GEL) is the only official currency, USD, GBP, and EUR accounts are easily accessible at local banks. You can even withdraw USD from ATMs.
Barter Potential: Though not legal tender, the current lack of regulation allows crypto to be used in barter-like exchanges (for example, when buying property). However, new regulations could emerge.
Important notes
Businesses: Crypto profits generated within a Georgian-registered business entity may be subject to corporate income tax and dividend tax rate upon distribution.
Small Business Status (SBS): Trading crypto while holding SBS is complex. While generally taxed at 0%, future regulations could change this.
Tax Residency: To enjoy these tax benefits, you generally need Georgian tax residency, achievable by either residing in Georgia for 183+ days per year or through the High Net Worth Individual program.
Exiting Previous Tax Systems: Simply becoming a Georgian tax resident may not immediately end your tax obligations to your previous country. Formal processes and, in some cases like the USA, citizenship renunciation, may be required.
Crypto regulations in the country of Georgia
Georgia, previously known for its minimal cryptocurrency regulation, has implemented new rules to enhance security and compliance.
Here's what you need to know:
Risk Mitigation: Cryptocurrencies are considered as a high-risk asset that can be used for illegal activities like money laundering or terrorism financing. Georgia's regulations aim to reduce these risks.
Global Standards: The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), an international body combating financial crimes, recommended Georgia strengthen its crypto framework.
What's New?
Definition and Licensing: The law now defines "virtual assets" (including cryptocurrencies) and requires Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) to register with Georgia's National Bank.
Accountability: VASPs must now implement measures to identify customers, monitor transactions, and prevent illegal activity.
Traceability: VASPs must share specific information when transferring crypto, improving the ability to track suspicious transactions.
Who’s affected?
Cryptocurrency exchanges (crypto-to-crypto, crypto-to-fiat, crypto-to-financial instruments)
Crypto asset transfer, storage, or custodial services
Cryptocurrency portfolio management services
Cryptocurrency trading platform operation
Cryptocurrency lending platforms
Initial Coin Offering (ICO) facilitation
Who is not affected?
Individual Users: For now, individual miners and casual traders are largely unaffected.

Georgian banks

Georgian Phone Number and Email: For contact and official communication.

Georgia: An easy country to migrate to

Invest through a Georgian company (minimum: USD 300,000), with specific annual turnover requirements. This offers greater business flexibility.
Work Residence Permit: Build Your Career in Georgia
Secure at least a 6-month employment contract within Georgia (for LLCs or Individual Entrepreneur positions).
Demonstrate financial self-sufficiency during your stay.
Initial permits are 6-12 months, with potential extensions up to 11 years. This is excellent for those committed to establishing themselves in Georgia long-term.
High net worth individual residency
There are two main ways to qualify as an HNWI:
Asset-Based: Demonstrate ownership of assets exceeding three million Georgian Lari (approx. $1,075,000). Various assets accepted (real estate, stocks, etc.). Valuation reports may be needed.
Income-Based: Show income exceeding 200,000 GEL (approx. $71,500) in each of the last three years. The income source can be global.
Important note: HNWI status alone doesn't grant tax residency; the additional requirement is essential. Meeting one of the four combinations (asset+permit, asset+income, etc.) is sufficient.
Procedures for relocating to Georgia
Georgia tax residency and residency requirements for Tax Purposes
Georgia's tax system offers attractive benefits for foreigners, including a territorial approach where you're generally not taxed on income earned outside of Georgia. However, understanding what qualifies as "foreign-sourced" income is crucial.
It's also important to distinguish between two types of residency in Georgia:
Legal Residency: Grants the right to live and work in Georgia.
Tax Residency: Determines where you are liable to pay taxes.
You can have one without the other, or have both. To enjoy the tax advantages Georgia offers, you generally need to be a Georgian tax resident.
How to get tax residency in Georgia?
The 183-day rule
If you physically spend at least 183 days (that's roughly half the year) within Georgia's borders during any consecutive 12-month period, you automatically qualify as a tax resident. There's no complicated application process or stacks of paperwork. Once you meet the time requirement, you'll enjoy the tax benefits for that entire year.
P.S. You don't have to stay the entire 183 days in one stretch. You could spread your time out over several visits throughout the year.
High net worth individual (HNWI) program
Meet the HNWI wealth threshold:
Own assets exceeding 3,000,000 Georgian Lari (approx. $1,300,000).
OR have had an annual income above 200,000 GEL (approx. $77,000) for each of the past three years.
Additional Requirement:
Hold Georgian legal residency or citizenship.
OR demonstrate at least 25,000 GEL (approx. $7,500) in annual income from a Georgian source.
