LLC registration in Georgia

We set up an LLC (შპს): prepare the founding documents, register the company, put it on the tax record and assemble the set for the bank procedure.

A shareholder is liable up to the value of their contribution, and that is what separates the form from a sole trader. The comparison is in a separate explainer.

Kanon Georgia is a private law and accounting firm, not a government authority. The competent authority makes the decision; state fees are paid separately.

What the work covers

• Name check. We propose options and check they are available before filing, so you do not get refused over nothing.
• Founding documents: the application, the decision to incorporate and the charter, standard or written around your arrangements.
• Registered address - checking it qualifies and obtaining the owner's consent. Included in the price.
• Registration with the entrepreneurs register through the House of Justice.
• Tax registration and access to the taxpayer account.
• Appointment of the director and their powers.
• Preparation for the bank procedure: assembling the set, wording the description of the activity the way a bank expects it, and attending the application.
• The full set of documents that you will need afterwards.

When a tailored charter is needed

A standard charter is usually enough when there is one shareholder and no special arrangements. A tailored one is needed when there are several and something to record between them: how decisions are taken, pre-emption rights on a sale of a share, how a shareholder exits, the split of powers between the director and the meeting, what happens to a share in a dispute. This is the document people return to when partners disagree - so it is worth writing before, not after.

What is not included

• The state fee at the House of Justice. It is paid separately and depends on the processing time you choose.
• The bank's decision on an account. We prepare the set, the bank decides.
• Bookkeeping and reporting after registration are separate ongoing work.
• Licences and permits for regulated activities. We assess whether you need them; obtaining them is discussed separately.
• Tax planning in your country of residence.

What you will need

• A passport for each shareholder and for the director.
• Several options for the company name.
• An address for registration and the owner's consent.
• The shareholders' arrangements: shares, who is director, how decisions are taken.
• A description of the activity: what the company will actually do.
• If a shareholder is a company: its corporate documents, with apostille and translation where required.
• A power of attorney, if we act on your behalf.

You do not need the full set at the start. Some documents are worth obtaining only once the scope is agreed.

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

The price covers support through the procedure and the registered address. The state fee is paid separately and depends on the processing time.

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

What is outside our control

• Processing times at the House of Justice and at the bank.
• The bank's requirements for the set and for the description of the activity: they change and differ between banks.
• Whether the chosen name is taken and how it may be spelled.
• Documents issued in another country and only to their holder in person.

Where a decision rests with an authority or a bank, we say so before the work starts, not after a refusal.

When does an LLC need a tailored charter rather than the standard one?

A standard charter is usually enough with one shareholder and no special arrangements.

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.
