Income threshold and costs
Tax treatment while on the visa
A digital nomad visa does not by itself change your tax residency. Your tax residency is determined by days present and other ties under Georgia's rules. Use the tax residency calculator to check where you cross the threshold.
Duration, renewal, and presence
Permanent establishment risk: LOW - One of the most remote-worker-friendly countries. 1 year visa-free for most nationalities. No minimum income for the program.. Running an active business with local clients or employees from Georgia can create a taxable presence even on a nomad visa.
Path to permanent residency and citizenship
Watch-outs and recent changes
Most passport holders can stay in Georgia for up to 1 year visa-free with easy renewal by border run. This makes Georgia uniquely accessible as a base.

Frequently asked questions
What is the income requirement for the Georgia digital nomad visa?
The Remotely from Georgia Program has no minimum income requirement, though you must still demonstrate means to support yourself.
Do I pay tax in Georgia on foreign income while on the DNV?
No. Foreign-source employment income is generally not taxed in Georgia while you remain non-resident for tax purposes. Watch the days-before-tax-residency limit (183 days) - staying longer can trigger full tax residency.
How long is the Georgia DNV valid?
The initial stay is 1 year, renewable. Processing typically takes 7 days.
Can the Georgia DNV lead to permanent residency?
No. The Remotely from Georgia Program is a temporary stay permit and does not directly lead to permanent residency in Georgia.
Can I bring my family on the Georgia digital nomad visa?
Yes. A spouse can be included (without independent work rights). Dependents are typically covered under the same permit - check the dependent requirements for your situation.
