The April 1, 2026 Re-Registration Deadline: A Survival Guide for Georgian Companies

Georgia’s Law of Georgia on Entrepreneurs sets how legal addresses, registry data, and corporate documents must look on the public record. Reforms tied to the 2021 law have phased in new expectations; justice authorities and media have widely communicated an April 1, 2026 cut-off for many legacy companies (often those registered before 2022) to bring registration into compliance.

This article is general information, not legal advice. Deadlines, cure periods, and sanctions depend on your entity type and current NAPR practice—confirm with counsel and the registry.

Why the 2021 Law on Entrepreneurs matters now

The statute modernizes registry content, digital contact points, and governance expectations. Entities that still reflect pre-reform charters or incomplete data may face defect notices, extract restrictions, or deregistration risk after statutory cure periods. Read the current consolidated text on the Legislative Herald of Georgia (Matsne) rather than relying on summaries alone.

Consequences of non-compliance (high level)

Where defects are not cured, NAPR may suspend or restrict registry extracts, which can block new contracts, banking, and counterparty due diligence. Involuntary liquidation can follow prolonged non-compliance in some scenarios. Exact articles and timelines must be verified against Matsne and official NAPR guidance for your case.

Updating your charter

Many companies use model charters; others need custom provisions. Changes must be adopted, notarized where required, and filed so the registry extract matches reality (name, address, governance, contact data).

Digital identity: my.gov.ge and registry email/phone

Official administrative acts and notices increasingly flow through electronic channels. Ensure my.gov.ge (and any mandatory registry email/phone fields) are active and monitored—missed deadlines in a portal inbox can be as damaging as lost physical mail.
