We’ve helped many clients successfully register and navigate Georgia’s tax regime. We know what the Revenue Service looks for. We know the little missteps that quietly disqualify people.
Georgia isn't only attracting big investors anymore. In the past decade, it's become a launchpad for startups, freelancers...anyone with ambition and a good idea.
If you plan to launch a business solo, individual entrepreneur registration in Georgia is likely your most straightforward path. Under Georgian law, an Individual Entrepreneur (I.E.) is a physical person who carries out business in their name. It’s not a separate legal entity like an LLC, but it gives you the legal right to operate, invoice clients, and pay taxes as a self-employed professional.
