Georgia para trabajadores remotos.
A magnet for freelancers: the 1% small-business turnover tax, a one-year visa-free stay for ~94 nationalities, and crypto-friendly rules, all at low cost and with very low crime. Trade-offs: no EU access, thinner English and parcel-locker coverage, and banking that has grown stricter for non-residents.

Ease of receiving goods from abroad. seamless = major international carriers deliver door-to-door, meaningful duty-free de-minimis threshold, customs clearance predictable in days; minor-friction = carriers present but low de-minimis, extra paperwork or routine delays; significant-friction = frequent customs holds, high brokerage fees, some marketplaces refuse to ship; unreliable = parcels regularly lost or blocked, informal import channels dominate. De-minimis thresholds and clearance rules from the national customs authority (official source, cite the regulation); carrier presence from carriers' official pages.

- Notas
- M-Lab NDT is single-stream and reads well below Ookla-style figures — comparable only within this criterion. Cross-check: the World Bank's July-2024 median of ~20 Mbps (Ookla-derived, so not citable here) is consistent with this once the M-Lab-reads-low offset is accounted for. Speeds are trending up (~10%/yr: M-Lab yearly medians ran 9.7 in 2020 → 15.8 in 2023), so multi-year pooling would understate current speed; the latest full year is used instead. GNCC/comcom.ge publishes operator quality-of-service measurements (e.g. Magticom fixed ~56 Mb/s advertised-tier average, 2025/26) but no national measured median, and its own speed commentary relies on the same Ookla data we can't redistribute.

Openness to foreignersReservadaGallup MAI 3,05/9 · 2016
Qué mide esto
How accepting the resident population is of migrants and foreigners — the inverse of xenophobia, a real concern for someone relocating. Our own five-band reading (very-open / open / moderate / reserved / low) informed primarily by the Gallup Migrant Acceptance Index (0–9 scale: three questions on migrants living in the country, becoming neighbours, and marrying into the family; 2019 wave), cross-checked where available with the World Values Survey wave 7 / European Values Study 2017 question on whether people would not want immigrants or foreign workers as neighbours (a higher share = more hostile). Banding guide against the Gallup 0–9 score: ≥7.0 very-open, 5.5–7.0 open, 4.0–5.5 moderate, 2.5–4.0 reserved, below 2.5 low (the 2019 global average of 5.21 sits in 'moderate'). Country level only: no credible city-level survey of attitudes to foreigners exists, so on city pages the country reading is shown as country context. Gallup is a research source cited with attribution, not republished in bulk; the raw index score/year and any cross-check figure are carried inside each value. Value shape: { band, gallupMai?, gallupYear?, unwantedNeighborPct?, unwantedNeighborSource? }. Display-only: attitudinal, survey-based and ~2019 vintage, so it is shown as honest context and never folded into the composite score.

- Census counts 133,857 foreign citizens in the permanent population of 3,929,581 (critical moment 13–14 Nov 2024) = 3.4%. Permanent-population basis counts only foreign nationals resident 12+ months. Population totals confirmed firsthand in the Geostat Final Results PDF (geostat.ge/media/78282); the citizenship split is from Geostat's June 2026 detailed census release, cross-checked across multiple independent outlets reporting identical Geostat figures because the Geostat detailed table is not machine-readable.
- Notas
- Permanent-resident basis. IMPORTANT: this undercounts the 2022–2023 Russian/Belarusian influx — many relocatees live on visa-free stays (Russians 360, Belarusians 90 visa-free days) without residence permits and below the 12-month threshold. Geostat's preliminary 2025 estimate was 6.6% (~257,000) before the strict 12-month rule cut it to the final 3.4%. Treat 3.4% as a floor for actual foreign presence.

- Georgian Post ~500 branches nationwide (1–3 day domestic parcels, some lockers/pickup points); Wolt Drive and Glovo last-mile in Tbilisi/Batumi; DHL/FedEx/UPS present. Dense and reliable in cities; locker density and nationwide same-day coverage thinner than EU leaders → good, not excellent.
