As we tell every client, the tax position in Georgia is clear: corporate tax is charged only when profits are distributed (Estonian model) at 15%, with Virtual Zone IT companies exempt on foreign income. Day to day, georgia company formation takes 1 to 2 working days, and GoldenKey coordinates the local agents, documents and bank introductions from Ajman. The most common businesses Nigerians open through GoldenKey are in general trading, oil and gas services, logistics and fashion, although Georgia supports almost any activity. Nigerians are a vibrant community of entrepreneurs, traders and professionals concentrated in Dubai and Sharjah, so the Georgia authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Nigerian applications every day and process them without hesitation.
Why Georgia
Reasons company owners choose Georgia include one of the easiest places in the world to start a business, low taxes and simple reporting, visa-free entry for most nationalities for a year and bridge between europe, the caucasus and central asia. Requirements for a Georgia company are one director and one shareholder of any nationality, a registered address in Georgia and no minimum capital. To be clear, many Nigerian company owners run Georgia companies alongside an existing business in Nigeria, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.

Frequently asked questions
How does Georgia compare with a UAE free zone?
Put simply, each serves different markets. GoldenKey usually recommends the UAE as the operating base and Georgia where you have customers, suppliers or treaty benefits there.
Do I need to travel to Georgia to incorporate?
Put simply, in most cases no. Incorporation is handled by our local partner under a power of attorney. Some banks in Georgia require a video or in-person meeting.
Can my UAE company own the Georgia company?
Yes. A UAE free zone or mainland company can be the shareholder, which is a common structure for groups operating in both markets.
Can a Nigerian citizen own 100% of a company in Georgia?
Yes, it can. Nigerians can own the full share capital of a Georgia company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Nigeria and the UAE?
The UAE has double taxation agreements with more than 130 countries. Whether Nigeria is covered and how it applies to you depends on the current treaty position, which GoldenKey checks with a tax adviser before you rely on it.
