Georgia Visa-free / long-stay entry (dedicated nomad program status uncertain): Tax Implications
How the Georgia Visa-free / long-stay entry (dedicated nomad program status uncertain) affects your tax residency, and what to confirm before you commit to a long stay.
Georgia's reputation as a low-tax destination has real substance behind it: the Individual Entrepreneur Small Business Status offers a genuine 1% turnover tax up to roughly $155,000-165,000/year in revenue, confirmed as still active and unchanged by the same 2026 legal updates that introduced the new work-permit requirement. This is a separate system from the work permit itself — you can need both, one, or neither depending on your specific setup.
Standard tax residency in Georgia is generally tied to 183 days of presence within a 12-month period, similar to most countries on this list.
