I&D Tax Consulting’s prices rise with your annual turnover. TaxConsultant.ge quotes each question separately, and Nexia Georgia, TPsolution, PwC Georgia, Andersen in Georgia, BDO Georgia and Grant Thornton Georgia do not publish their tax fees.
Types of tax advisor in Tbilisi
Five firms on this list come from international networks and associations. PwC Georgia, Nexia Georgia, BDO Georgia, Grant Thornton Georgia and Andersen in Georgia all handle tax disputes, and suit companies with group structures or cross-border transactions.
TaxConsultant.ge is a founder-led practice where David Sisvadze answers each question in an opinion he signs and then goes through it with the client on a call.

Tbilisi Expat, ExpatHub.GE and I&D Tax Consulting publish price lists and work with foreign founders and investors on business structure, residency and special tax statuses. Loialte sells ongoing tax advice as a monthly package.
What to check before hiring a tax advisor
- The advisor on your file. Ask for a name and a background you can check, such as years inside the Georgian tax administration or at a Big Four firm.
- What you get in writing. Ask whether the fee buys a written memo or report, and how many business days it takes to arrive.
- Who handles a dispute. Ask who represents you if the Revenue Service challenges the position the advisor recommended, and whether that work sits inside the fee.
- An advance tax ruling. For a transaction with unclear tax treatment, the Revenue Service issues a ruling within 90 days of a request, and the authorities cannot act against a ruling you follow. Ask whether the advisor will prepare the application.
Georgian tax rates for companies and individuals
- Company profit tax is 15%, charged on distributed profit and certain expenses rather than on profit as it is earned. Banks, credit unions, microfinance organisations and loan providers pay 20%.
- Dividends paid to individuals and non-resident companies are taxed at source at 5%.
- Personal income tax is 20%, or 5% on rent from a home let for residential use when no deductions are claimed.
- An International Company pays 5% profit tax, salaries it pays are taxed at 5%, and its dividends are not taxed at source.
- A Virtual Zone company pays no profit tax on profit from IT it develops and supplies outside Georgia.
