Frequently asked questions

Can I buy property in Georgia without travelling?

Yes, through a representative. Sign a power of attorney before a notary in the country where you live, get the apostille on it, and translate it into Georgian. Confirm the wording and requirements with a Georgian lawyer first.

What does buying cost on top of the price?

Transfer tax is 0%. Registry fee ₾150–350 depending on turnaround, notary roughly ₾400–1000. Agent commission (1–3%) usually sits with the seller.

Can I get a mortgage if I work abroad?

The National Bank's cap depends on the loan currency, not residency: 90% in lari, 70% in USD/EUR. Whether foreign income counts is the bank's call — ask before you commit.

Which rate converts my money?

The official National Bank rate, shown live on this page. Banks quote their own buy/sell rates — compare them on the exchange-rate page.

Is there tax when I resell?

For an individual's home, the gain is taxed at 5% and exempt once ownership in the Registry is over 2 years. Details are on the selling-costs page.
