Frequently asked questions about opening an account in Georgia
Answers to popular questions about remote bank account opening
How is this better than a virtual card (Wise, Revolut, Payoneer)?
A virtual card is a product from a fintech company with an e-money license, not a bank account: it often lacks real SWIFT details, limits business turnover, and such accounts are frequently frozen over suspicious activity. We open an account at a licensed Georgian bank supervised by the National Bank — with full SWIFT access, deposits, and the option to hold it under your own sole trader or LLC. On top of that, you get a real legal entity taxed at 1%, which a virtual card simply cannot offer.
Why do you focus on Credo Bank and TBC?
We focus on Credo Bank and TBC because for non-residents these are some of the clearest and most practical banks in Georgia. Both tend to make decisions quickly, communication is straightforward, and the process involves less bureaucracy than many alternatives. In 99% of cases, one of these two banks turns out to be the ideal choice for foreigners.
Can an account be opened in other banks in Georgia?
Yes, but other banks in Georgia often come with additional restrictions, extra nuances, or more complex requirements. If you are interested in a specific bank, contact us and we will assess what is realistically possible in your case. For most standard situations, Credo Bank and TBC remain the simplest options.
Do I need to come in person to Georgia to open an account?
No, if you choose the remote account opening service, a personal visit is not required. The entire process takes place online. However, for some account types or at the client's request, we also offer personal assistance in Tbilisi.
What documents are needed to open an account in Georgia?
Just a foreign passport with a notarized translation, and a properly executed power of attorney for your representative — we provide ready-made wording that your notary can use directly. TBC may request proof of income in about 5% of cases, but even without it there are alternative ways to confirm income. Any other documents depend on your specific situation — we let you know in advance.
How long does remote account opening in Georgia take?
A typical timeline looks like this: 1-2 days for preparation, 3 to 10 business days for processing depending on the bank and service, plus 3-7 days for courier delivery of the documents. For business accounts and company registration, the process can take a bit longer and we discuss that individually.
Does the new Georgian work permit law affect account opening?
New work permit requirements took effect in Georgia on March 1, 2026. Even if you are physically in Georgia, as long as you do not work with Georgian residents, this does not stand in the way of opening an account, a sole trader, or an LLC, or running your business — everything remains accessible as before. If you work with Georgian residents, we recommend clarifying your status in advance. Official information: labourmigration.moh.gov.ge
Can I open an account in Georgia if I am not a resident?
Yes, accounts in Georgian banks are available to non-residents. This is one of the advantages of Georgia's banking system. You do not need a residence permit or citizenship of the country to open a personal or business account.
Are there hidden fees or additional costs?
Our prices on the website are fixed and already include all government fees and any unexpected costs that come up during processing — you won't pay extra for that. The only separate costs are shipping the power of attorney to us and delivering the finished document package back to you — this depends on your country and delivery method, and we quote it upfront during the consultation.
How is the bank card received?
After the account is opened, the bank issues a card in your name. The most popular option for our clients is courier delivery to your country — usually around 3-7 days. We help arrange the delivery and keep you informed of current timelines.

Bank account, sole trader, and LLC in Georgia remotely: how it works for non-residents
Georgian legislation does not restrict foreign nationals from opening bank accounts, registering as a sole trader, or forming an LLC: neither a residence permit nor local citizenship is a mandatory requirement. Georgia's banking system is regulated by the National Bank of Georgia and meets international standards, and business registration takes only a few days.
Which banks we work with
We support account opening at Credo Bank and TBC — banks that take a practical approach to non-resident clients and do not require an excessive document package. Both work with Visa/Mastercard, support SWIFT transfers, and offer multi-currency accounts in GEL, USD, and EUR — a full bank account for international payments, not just a digital wallet.
Not just an account: sole trader and LLC end to end
Beyond the account, we register a sole trader with the 1% small business tax regime and an LLC for international business. This covers use cases that Wise or Revolut cannot: receiving SWIFT payments from foreign companies, working with platforms that require a real account under a legal entity, and preferential taxation for those working with foreign clients.
The legal mechanism behind remote processing
The legal basis for remote processing is a notarized power of attorney for a representative in Georgia. You have it drawn up by a notary in your home country — the document authorizes the representative to act on your behalf when opening the account or registering a sole trader or LLC. This is standard practice and in no way limits your rights.
In most cases, a foreign passport is sufficient as the primary document. The bank or authority conducts verification remotely. Proof of address, income statements, and other supporting documents are only requested in specific situations — we always notify you in advance and help prepare what is needed.
Who this is for
Freelancers and IT professionals use the account to receive USD and EUR payments via SWIFT. Entrepreneurs who register a sole trader or LLC in Georgia gain access to a preferential tax regime. Relocants often open an account before moving so they have a working card from day one.
A Georgian bank account is not a replacement for Wise or Revolut — it complements them: full bank status, a physical card, and SWIFT credentials for international settlements, plus your own legal entity with preferential tax treatment, which a virtual card simply cannot offer. If you are considering an account, sole trader, or LLC, write to us and we will assess your situation for free.
