Why Choose Georgia for Residency?

Georgia offers an attractive residency program for foreigners due to its friendly tax regime, low cost of living, and strategic location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia. With no wealth or capital gains tax on foreign income and easy access to neighboring countries, Georgia has become an increasingly popular destination for entrepreneurs, investors, and retirees. Below are the key types of residence permits we assist with:

Work Residence Permit

The Work Residence Permit is ideal for individuals moving to Georgia for entrepreneurial or labor activities. To qualify, applicants must meet the following requirements:

• Employment Contract: You must have a valid employment contract (or certificate of employment) with at least 6 months remaining, even if you are the owner of the sponsoring Limited Liability Company (LLC) or Individual Entrepreneur (IE).
• Registration: Employees must be registered in Georgia's unified database managed by the Ministry of Labor, Health, and Social Defense.
• Proof of Funds: Applicants must demonstrate sufficient funds to support themselves during the permit’s validity (initially between 6 to 12 months, with potential renewals of up to 11 years).
• Business Turnover: For LLCs or IEs sponsoring foreign workers, the business must have a turnover exceeding 50,000 GEL per foreign employee (director or staff) within the last 12 months.

Short-term Residence Permit (Property Ownership over $150K USD)

The Short-term Residence Permit is available to individuals who own immovable property in Georgia (excluding agricultural land) valued at over 150,000 USD . This can be a single property or a portfolio of properties exceeding the threshold. The permit also extends to immediate family members (spouse and dependents).
