Best Tax Advisors in Tbilisi, Georgia 2026: 5 Options Compared, TaxConsultant.ge Ranked First

TbilisiExperts.ge evaluated 24 tax advisors and listed 11. TaxConsultant.ge, whose founder spent six years at the Revenue Service of Georgia, ranks first.

TBILISI, GEORGIA, September 18, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Twenty-four tax advisors serving clients in Tbilisi were evaluated for the 2026 ranking of tax advisors in Tbilisi published by TbilisiExperts.ge, which checks each firm against its published scope of work, its office address and whether it can advise in English without a translator. Eleven were listed.

TaxConsultant.ge ranked #1 on the list, updated September 17, 2026, and carries the directory's "Best for written tax opinions" badge.

Georgian tax has a reputation for simplicity that its rules only partly support. Individual entrepreneurs with small business status pay 1% of Georgian-source business income up to GEL 500,000 a year, but the regime is closed to consulting, legal, notary, audit, medical and architectural work, and passing the threshold two years in a row ends the status. Tax residency follows from 183 days in Georgia within any 12-month period, and while a resident's foreign-source income is exempt, services performed in Georgia count as Georgian-source income wherever the client is based. Errors in either tend to surface at audit, and the Revenue Service has three years from the end of a calendar year to audit it.

#1: TAXCONSULTANT.GE, THE TOP-RANKED TAX ADVISOR IN TBILISI, GEORGIA

Website: taxconsultant.ge
WhatsApp: +995 511 55 55 26
Office: 16 Ateni Street, Tbilisi, Georgia
Languages: English, Russian, Georgian
Clients: foreigners living in Georgia or planning a move, Georgian citizens and companies

TaxConsultant.ge is the only firm in the top five that sells tax advice on its own. The other four pair it with company registration, bookkeeping or legal work. It takes one question at a time, quotes it, and answers it in a written opinion on company letterhead signed by its founder, David Sisvadze, followed by a call of up to 60 minutes and seven days of follow-up questions by email.

TAXCONSULTANT.GE'S TRACK RECORD AND CREDENTIALS
- Ranked #1 of 11 tax advisors listed, from 24 evaluated, on the TbilisiExperts.ge list updated September 17, 2026
- Founded by David Sisvadze, Founder and Lead Tax Consultant, who has more than 13 years of tax experience
- David Sisvadze spent six years inside the Revenue Service of Georgia, the country's tax and customs authority
- Has worked with more than 1,000 clients on tax optimisation, expats and Georgian taxpayers alike
- David Sisvadze signs every opinion the practice issues

TAXCONSULTANT.GE'S FEES AND TIMING
- No published fee schedule: each question is priced on what it asks and the research it needs
- A quote follows within 24 hours on working days
- The written opinion and the call come on the working day after payment
- Every engagement includes the signed written opinion, a call of up to 60 minutes and 7 days of follow-up questions by email

TAXCONSULTANT.GE'S SPECIALTIES
- 1% small business status for individual entrepreneurs
- Tax residency, including the 183-day test and residency for high net worth individuals
- Company profit tax and dividends, including paying yourself through salary or dividends
- VAT registration, and reverse charge VAT on services bought from abroad
- Crypto sold by individuals, and the cases the 2019 ruling does not cover
- Rental income, including the 5% rate on residential rent
- Selling property, and the two-year ownership rule
- Annual property tax
- Fines, tax audits and appeals against Revenue Service decisions

Crypto shows why the practice answers in writing. Under a 2019 Ministry of Finance public ruling, an individual's income from selling crypto assets is not Georgian-source income and is therefore exempt from Georgian income tax. The ruling covers disposals and nothing more. Crypto received as payment for work, staking income and trading run as a business all fall outside it, and each of those needs an answer built on the client's own facts.

The combination that separates it on the list is the format rather than any single credential. TPsolution also has a founder who came out of the tax administration, and ExpatHub.GE also publishes fixed prices for the applications expats ask about most. What TaxConsultant.ge does differently is give every question the same deliverable, in English, Russian or Georgian, from the first message to the signed opinion.

PROS
- Founder worked at the Revenue Service of Georgia for six years
- More than 13 years of tax experience behind every opinion

- Opinions and calls in English, Russian or Georgian

- Tax advice only: bookkeeping, company registration and monthly filings stay with another firm
- The website is in English only, although opinions and calls are available in Russian and Georgian

#2: TBILISI EXPAT

Tbilisi Expat is the expat-facing generalist of the five, and the only one that publishes a full tax rate card. Its tax consulting page prices an hour of advice at 250 GEL plus VAT, structure planning from 800 GEL, international planning from 1,500 GEL and an ongoing advisory retainer from 400 GEL a month, with the first 30-minute consultation free. The same firm registers individual entrepreneurs and companies, opens bank accounts and keeps the books, which makes it a fit for someone arriving in Georgia and more service than a client with one question needs.

- Free 30-minute first consultation, online or at its Tbilisi office
- Registers clients remotely by power of attorney, with no trip to Georgia
- Works in English, Russian and Georgian

Cons:
- Tax advice is bundled with registration, accounting and compliance rather than sold on its own
- Published prices exclude 18% VAT where it applies
- The rate card covers advice and planning; audit defence and disputes are not priced on it

- Shaped around cross-border and group work rather than a single domestic question

#4: EXPATHUB.GE

ExpatHub.GE is an expat-focused law, tax and accounting practice whose tax department has been led since 2020 by Levan Chkhenkeli, formerly five years at Ernst & Young. It publishes fixed prices for the applications expats ask about most, at 2,000 GEL plus VAT for a high net worth residency application and 1,500 GEL plus VAT for Virtual Zone status, with tax consulting at 600 GEL an hour plus VAT and a free 30-minute call first.

#5: IBCCS TAX

IBCCS TAX is the multi-jurisdiction option. It runs its own offices in Tbilisi and Batumi alongside Cyprus, the United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan, so a structure that touches Georgia and one other country stays with one adviser. Its Georgian work covers advance tax rulings, tax residency, incentives and dispute settlement, and the group states more than 800 clients and over 60 professionals. It publishes no fees.

Pros:
- Own offices in Cyprus, the UAE and Uzbekistan alongside Tbilisi and Batumi
- Advance tax rulings, tax residency, incentives and dispute settlement in Georgia
- Sector experience across software development, renewable energy, logistics, construction and tourism
- Works with the accounting platforms Georgian clients run, including 1C, Zoho Books and Balansi

Cons:
- No published fees
- Built and staffed for multi-country structures rather than one Georgian question
- Two Google reviews, so there is little independent feedback to read

HOW TAXCONSULTANT.GE COMPARES TO THE TOP 5 TBILISI TAX ADVISORS

TaxConsultant.ge is the only firm in the top five selling tax advice on its own, and the only one whose standard deliverable is an opinion on letterhead signed by its founder. Tbilisi Expat publishes the fullest rate card and handles the whole first-year sequence. TPsolution is where a transfer pricing file or an OECD-standard position goes. ExpatHub.GE prices residency and Virtual Zone applications up front. IBCCS TAX covers Georgia plus Cyprus, the UAE or Uzbekistan under one roof. What TaxConsultant.ge gives up in breadth it puts into the form of the answer.

THE CLEAR CHOICE FOR EXPATS AND GEORGIANS WITH A TAX QUESTION

Georgian tax runs on thresholds and deadlines that are easy to miss. Small business returns and payments are due monthly by the 15th. VAT registration becomes compulsory within two business days of taxable supplies passing GEL 100,000 in any 12 consecutive months. Income nobody withheld tax on goes on an annual return due by March 31, property tax returns are due by November 1, and a Revenue Service decision can be appealed only within 30 days of being served.

Each firm in the top five is strong somewhere. Tbilisi Expat publishes the fullest rate card and runs the whole first-year sequence for a new arrival. TPsolution is the firm for a transfer pricing file or an advance ruling with OECD reasoning behind it. ExpatHub.GE prices high net worth residency and Virtual Zone applications up front and holds the largest review base of the five. IBCCS TAX covers Georgia alongside Cyprus, the UAE and Uzbekistan for a structure that spans two countries.

For a question that needs a definite answer, signed by someone who worked inside the Revenue Service, TaxConsultant.ge ranks first. The ranking and the criteria behind it are published on TbilisiExperts.ge. TaxConsultant.ge presents itself as a tax consultant in Tbilisi for expats and locals, and takes questions through its website and on WhatsApp.
