Georgia continues to pursue a business-friendly tax and customs
policy, which - along with economic reform - implies a complete
harmonization of the legislation with EU standards. At this stage,
work on the new Customs Code project has been completed with the
participation of experts from the European Union, fully meeting the
standards of the European Union.
The approach to the new Customs Code is based on the following
principles: the introduction of simple and fair rules, the creation
of a stable and predictable business environment, the reduction of
the costs associated with foreign trade for the private sector and
the introduction of even more flexible customs procedures.
As stated by Mamuka Bakhtadze, Georgia's prime minister:
"The idea of digital customs is a very ambitious project.
One can say that Georgia will be one of the first countries not
only in our region, but also in Eastern Europe, which will
implement the digital customs of the new generation."
