Loan Or Capital? Key Transfer Pricing Rules In Georgia

Transfer pricing is a critical issue for Georgian companies engaging in controlled operations with foreign-related entities or offshore firms. The latest regulations highlight the importance of ensuring such transactions are in line with market conditions to prevent untaxed outflows of funds from Georgia.

Transfer Pricing and Controlled Operations

Georgia's transfer pricing legislation requires interdependent entities to conduct transactions at market prices. This prevents the misuse of pricing strategies to shift profits untaxed to offshore jurisdictions. A pivotal aspect of these rules involves determining whether financial transactions, such as loans from foreign investors, qualify as genuine loans or should be classified as capital contributions.
