Reasons for IE Registration by Freelancers
Tax Rates: The 1% tax rate is not retroactive. Without registration as an IE, if you stay in Georgia for more than 183 days and receive income, the mandatory tax will be 20% instead of 1%.
Avoiding Double Taxation: Opening a small business allows you to save on taxes in your country of residence due to the double taxation avoidance agreement.
The Georgian government is keen on attracting foreign investments, hence taxes for foreigners are as low as for the citizens, and the registration process is highly simplified.
