The Tax Reality
Georgia’s territorial tax system and Estonian-model corporate tax make it one of the most tax-efficient jurisdictions in Europe. Here’s what you need to know.
Georgia uses a territorial tax system for individuals — foreign-source income is not taxed.
Small businesses can register for a 1% turnover tax, one of the lowest rates in the world.
Corporate income tax is 20% flat, but Georgia adopted the Estonian model: 0% on reinvested or undistributed profits.
There is no capital gains tax on foreign assets.
Georgia has a growing reputation as a crypto-friendly jurisdiction with no specific crypto taxes.
A residence permit alone does not automatically create tax residency — you must spend 183+ days in Georgia or have your center of vital interests there.
