The realistic answer
A registered business is the beginning—not the approval.
Georgian banks apply customer due diligence and ongoing transaction monitoring. A well-organized application explains who you are, why Georgia is relevant and how the account will be used.
We match suitable cases to current bank pathways, prepare the KYC story, coordinate with designated banking contacts where available and support the applicant through questions. We do not bypass compliance or conceal facts.
Dedicated support for expats
A consistent contact
through the onboarding.
For suitable applications, our team coordinates with designated relationship contacts or banking coordinators experienced with international clients. This can reduce lost context and language friction.
- Pre-screen before the appointment or remote submission
- Organized document and KYC narrative
- Coordination of bank questions and follow-up
- Help understanding activation and online-banking steps
Independence matters: banking contacts remain employees/representatives of their institutions. They cannot waive compliance rules, and TBILISI EXPAT LLC is not a bank or payment institution.

Banking FAQ
What applicants should know.
Does an IE need a business account?+
A separate business account is strongly preferable for clean accounting, client receipts and evidence of economic activity. The bank decides the precise product and KYC classification.
Can an LLC open remotely?+
Potentially. The bank must accept the ownership structure, signatory/mandate, remote identification and complete corporate KYC. Complex ownership, high-risk sectors or countries may require a visit or may not be accepted.
What is a ready-made company option?+
For a suitable standard case, remote banking coordination can be paired with transfer of a pre-registered Georgian company. Beneficial-owner KYC, corporate transfer documents, tax/accounting status and bank approval still require checks; third-party and government costs are separate.
Will the account have SWIFT and multi-currency access?+
These are common business-banking features, but access, tariffs, correspondent routes and transaction monitoring depend on the chosen bank and approved customer profile.
Can the bank ask about clients and invoices?+
Yes. Expect questions about services/products, counterparties, countries, expected volumes, source of initial funds, contracts, website/profile and tax/accounting arrangements.
