Georgia taxes foreign-sourced personal income at 0%. We help you secure tax residency — via the 183-day rule or the High Net Worth Individual program — and the certificate to prove it.
Georgia operates a territorial tax system: personal income earned outside Georgia is generally not taxed at all. For location-independent founders, investors, and remote professionals, that single fact can be worth more than every other line on a tax return combined.
Crucially, Georgia is not a blacklisted tax haven. It is a Council of Europe member with an EU Association Agreement and a dense treaty network, which means a Georgian tax-residency certificate is respected by foreign authorities when you need to break residency elsewhere.
There are two main doors in. The standard route is the 183-day physical-presence test. The faster route — for those who qualify — is the High Net Worth Individual program, which grants residency without the day-count requirement. We assess which door fits your situation and walk you through it.

We map your income, mobility, and assets to the residency route that is both achievable and defensible abroad.

Frequently asked
