Georgia's Investment Legal Framework
The Law of Georgia on Promotion and Guarantees of Investment Activity guarantees national treatment to foreign investors, prohibits expropriation without fair compensation, and provides access to international arbitration for dispute resolution. Georgia has signed bilateral investment treaties (BITs) with over 30 countries and is party to the Energy Charter Treaty. The country's Association Agreement with the European Union (DCFTA) further aligns its regulatory environment with EU standards, providing additional legal certainty for international investors.
