LLC Registration Georgia | Open a Company as a Foreigner | 0% Corporate Tax

Why Register an LLC in Georgia? The 0% Corporate Tax Advantage Explained

A Georgian Limited Liability Company (LLC) is the gold standard for international trade, logistics, software agencies, and scalable corporate ventures. Operating under a modified Estonian Tax Model, a Georgian LLC is subject to 0% corporate income tax on retained and reinvested profits. With 0% corporate income tax on reinvested profits and 100% foreign ownership, Georgia is one of the most competitive jurisdictions in the world for company formation.

Flexible Shareholder Infrastructure

An LLC can be formed with 100% foreign ownership. There are no minimum charter capital requirements mandated by state law at the time of registration, making entry frictionless for global startups.

Corporate Governance & Structural Requirements

Before launching your application with the National Agency of Public Registry (NAPR), your corporate blueprint must clearly satisfy these statutory pillars:

Structural Pillar	Legal Requirements & Parameters
Shareholder Layout	Can consist of a single individual or a complex web of foreign corporate entities. Proportional equity split must be defined in the company bylaws (Charter).
Directorship (Management)	Must appoint at least one Director (CEO). Directors hold full operational and signing authority. Foreign nationals can serve as directors without requiring a local work permit.
Legal Registered Address	Every LLC must possess a valid physical address within Georgia to receive formal state correspondence. We provide a fully compliant, premium legal address as part of our core package.
Charter & Corporate Bylaws	A comprehensive legal document mapping out management voting thresholds, dead-lock resolutions, and profit distribution rules. Filed publicly with the Registry of Entrepreneurs.

Registration Channels: In-Person vs. 100% Remote

We manage your company formation through two distinct procedural tracks depending on your travel preferences:

Track A: In-Person Public Registry Escort: We draft your corporate charter, pre-book your application window, and physically escort you to the Public Service Hall in Tbilisi. Registration is typically finalized by the state on the exact same business day or the next morning.
Track B: 100% Remote via Power of Attorney (POA): No travel required. Our legal team prepares a customized multi-lingual Power of Attorney template. You sign and apostille/legalize it in your home country. Upon receiving the physical document in Tbilisi, we execute the complete registry filing and corporate activation on your behalf.

Processing Speeds & Official State Fees

The National Agency of Public Registry provides two official processing speed tiers:

Same-Day Urgent Registration: Application is submitted and finalized by the registrar on the exact same business day. (Ideal for rapid corporate deployment).
Standard Next-Day Registration: The registry processes the file and generates your unique 9-digit corporate identification code on the following business day.

Mandatory Post-Registration Setup

Securing your NAPR company extract is only the first step. To make your LLC fully operational and legally compliant, three essential post-registration setups must be completed immediately:

1. Revenue Service (RS.ge) Portal Activation

Within days of company formation, we initialize your official corporate profile with the Tax Authority.

2. The 15th-of-the-Month Tax Declaration Rule

An LLC must submit electronic corporate declarations by the 15th of every subsequent month. Even if your company generated zero revenue during its launch phase, filing a monthly zero-declaration is strictly mandatory to avoid administrative fines.

3. VAT Thresholds

Track your domestic revenue against the 100,000 GEL rolling VAT registration threshold.

Important Compliance Advisory: Director changes, shifting shareholder splits, or modifications to your registered business address are not legally binding until they are formally approved and updated inside the National Agency of Public Registry database.
