Investor residence permit and permanent residence in Georgia

We run cases for residence permits on the basis of investment and for the move to permanent residence: check the basis, prepare the set, file and support the case through to the decision.

The investment basis requires the investment itself to be evidenced - what it consists of, what it is worth and that it belongs to you. The more convincingly that is shown, the fewer follow-up questions arise during the review.

What the work covers

• Checking the basis. What the investment consists of, how its value is evidenced and in whose name the assets are held.
• Preparing the recommendations for the investor basis. Included in the price.
• Mapping the route to permanent status. Which periods count and which do not, and what follows from that for the order of filing.
• The document set, translations and notarial certification.
• Cross-checking the documents against each other and against earlier cases.
• Filing and running the case through to the decision.
• Working with a refusal. We read the wording, separate what can be fixed from what cannot, and say which route applies.

How permanent status differs

These are different statuses with different grounds and different consequences - including whether you have to renew and what happens after a long absence from the country. The detailed comparison is in a separate explainer.

What is not included

• The decision itself. It rests with the state authority. Nobody, ourselves included, can guarantee it, and we make no promises of that kind.
• The state fee. Paid separately; its size depends on the processing time you choose.
• Obtaining documents in another country where they are issued only to the applicant in person.
• Medical insurance, where required - you arrange it.
• The applicant's own steps: attendance, biometrics.

What you will need

• Your passport - every completed page.
• All current and previous Georgian documents: residence permit, ID card, certificates.
• A timeline of entries and exits over recent years.
• Proof of where you live in Georgia.
• Documents on your income and its source.
• Family members' documents for a joint application.
• Any previous refusals and the decisions on them, with dates.
• Details of what has already been apostilled and translated, and what has not.

Missing part of the set is not a reason to wait. At the review it often turns out that half of what was collected is not needed and what is needed is missing.

How the work goes

1. You describe the case - through the form, by email or in a messenger.
2. A lawyer reviews the facts: what you already have, what has to be obtained, where the weak points are.
3. We agree the scope and the price. Up to this point you pay nothing.
4. We sign a contract in which the scope of the service is set out in writing.
5. You hand over the documents, we check the set and tell you what is missing.
6. We run the procedure and keep you informed at every step.
7. You receive the result and the full set of documents.

Prices

Our fee and the state fee are counted separately. A valuation of the assets, where required, is paid separately.

Consultation - from $30. The price for your case is confirmed before the work starts and fixed in the contract.

What is outside our control

• The authority's decision and how long the review takes.
• Requirements for the document set: they are refined and must be checked on the filing date.
• The work of another country's authorities - certificates, apostilles, legalisation.
• Circumstances that already exist: previous refusals, breaches of stay, mismatches in documents from earlier years.

We tell you the weak points of the case before the work starts. If in our view the basis is shaky, you will hear it plainly rather than after filing.

About this page. It sets out the scope of our service and the general order of the procedure. It is not legal advice and not a public offer: the scope, the timing and the price for a particular matter are agreed individually and recorded in the contract. Requirements, fees and practice change, so anything here is checked against the position on the day you apply. In many procedures the final decision rests with the competent authority and its discretion, so a positive outcome cannot be guaranteed.
