Country in brief

Pros

  1. Very easy entry: a year visa-free for many nationalities.
  2. Low taxes and simple business registration.
  3. Low cost of living; Tbilisi is lively and affordable.
  4. Mountains, wine country, Black Sea coast (Batumi).
  5. English common among the young in Tbilisi.

Cons

  1. Political instability and a geopolitical position next to Russia.
  2. Small, low-income market; limited sectors for a foreign buyer.
  3. Healthcare and infrastructure are below EU standards.
  4. Banking and currency (lari) risk; sanctions-compliance scrutiny.
  5. Air quality in Tbilisi; the residence-permit path is less predictable than entry.

A month here, for a reference household

Reference household: two adults aged 38 and 37, a one-bedroom home, no children.

Residence fees and health cover are those of Visa-free long stay (1 year). The low, middle and high figures are the 25th, 50th and 75th percentiles where a publisher states them; each line says who published it.

illustrative Money figures on this page are illustrative unless the figure names its publisher. The illustrative ones are arranged so the shape is right — a larger flat costs more than a smaller one, and the expensive cities are the expensive ones — and they are accurate in nothing. Do not plan on them.
