Legal Georgia's professional fee
Confirmed after the initial assessment, before any work starts. It is never included in the state fee.
Third-party costs
Translation, notarisation, apostille, valuation or bank charges, where they apply, are listed separately.
The NAPR fee depends on the term you choose. Notarial, translation, valuation and professional fees are separate.
What it is
Buying, selling or re-registering property in Georgia ends with registration at the National Agency of Public Registry. We help you prepare the documents, understand the registry extract and accompany you at the Public Service Hall — and, where needed, coordinate a valuation.
Rights to immovable property in Georgia are recorded in the Public Registry, maintained by the National Agency of Public Registry (NAPR). A change of ownership is registered on application, and the registry extract shows the current owner and registered rights and encumbrances.
Before you sign, the extract is the starting point for understanding what you are buying. It does not replace a full legal review of the transaction where the circumstances call for one.
Who this is for
- Buyers and sellers of residential or commercial property.
- Owners who need to re-register ownership.
- Foreign buyers considering a property-based residence permit.
How we help
- Explaining the registration process and the documents for your transaction.
- Obtaining and explaining registry extracts.
- Accompaniment at the Public Service Hall for registration of the transfer.
- Coordinating a property valuation with our valuation specialist.
- Referral to a qualified legal professional where a transaction-specific legal review is needed.

Details and documents
Documents
Typically needed:
- Identity documents of the parties.
- The transaction document.
- Powers of attorney, if a party is represented.
- Foreign documents certified and translated, where relevant.
Requirements depend on the type of transaction and property.
Important to know
- We do not describe a transaction as legally safe without the necessary review, and legal due diligence is not included unless agreed in writing.
- A property-based residence permit now requires a market value above USD 150,000 equivalent in GEL, set by a certified assessor of an accredited body (from 1 March 2026).
- Valuation must be independent. We do not promise any particular valuation result.
What to prepare for a consultation
- The property's cadastral code or address.
- The parties and their citizenships.
- The planned price and financing.
- Your plans: residence, renting or resale.

Questions
How long does ownership registration take?
NAPR's standard term is within 4 working days; faster options are available within 1 working day or on the same day for higher fees.
Do you check whether the property is safe to buy?
We explain the registry extract and the process. A transaction-specific legal review is a separate service and is arranged only when agreed.
