Frequently asked questions
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.
Do I need to travel to Georgia to incorporate?
From day one, 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.
What are the annual obligations for a Georgia company?
Annual returns, accounts and tax filings vary by jurisdiction; GoldenKey provides a compliance calendar and local accounting support.
Can a South African citizen own 100% of a company in Georgia?
Yes. South Africans 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 South Africa and the UAE?
Yes. The UAE and South Africa have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.
