Frequently Asked Questions About Starting a Company in Georgia

Is it true that reinvested profits aren't taxed?

[to be verified with an official source] Georgia applies a model similar to Estonia's: corporate tax is paid only when profits are distributed as dividends, not on profits reinvested in the business. This should be confirmed with a professional based on your specific case.

What's the best company type for a small investment?

It depends on the activity: Individual Entrepreneur status is simpler for individual activities, while an LLC offers a clearer separation between personal and business assets.

Can I start a company in Georgia without relocating?

Yes, starting a company does not require transferring your tax residency: they are two separate processes, though often considered together.
