Here you’ll find the most frequently asked questions about Batumi real estate.
Investing in Batumi Real Estate
Yes, Georgian law grants foreign citizens the same rights as locals. You can become the full owner of an apartment, residential unit, or commercial property.
The only exceptions are agricultural and border lands, but this restriction does not apply to purchasing property in Batumi’s multi-story residential complexes.
The process is designed to be as simple and transparent as possible. After selecting a property and verifying the documents, a preliminary agreement is signed. The main steps include signing the final purchase agreement with a notary, registering the ownership rights with the National Agency of Public Registry (usually 1–2 business days), and completing the payment. The entire process, from selection to obtaining ownership, can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.
Personal presence is recommended but not always required. You can grant a notarial power of attorney to a representative, allowing them to sign all documents and complete the transaction on your behalf. We provide a sample power of attorney and assist with its formalization.
The tax burden for property owners in Georgia is among the lowest in the world.
-
Property Tax: Its amount depends on the type and cadastral value of the property. For most apartments, it is nominal.
-
Income Tax: If you rent out your property, tax is applied to the income received. For individuals, the rate is 20% of the net profit (income minus expenses).
-
Capital Gains Tax: When selling the property later, a tax of 5% to 20% is applied to the difference between the purchase and sale price.
