How we help you open a company in Georgia
One partner for all questions
Georgia is fast and simple, but the right regime (Virtual Zone vs International Company vs standard) depends on activity, clients and team — that's the decision we make together.
Futura Digital manages the entire journey — from initial structuring to a fully operational company with bank accounts and a resident team.
- Incorporation: LLC registration with the Public Registry, statutory address and director appointment.
- Tax setup: Virtual Zone, International Company or standard registration; VAT and small-business status where relevant.
- Residency: business residence permit, work permit or investor residency for founders and team.
- Banking: realistic shortlist of Georgian banks and partner EMIs.
- Ongoing: monthly tax filings, payroll and changes in the Public Registry.
