I. Why Company Registration Alone Is Not Enough in Georgia

Company registration in Georgia may be relatively straightforward, but building a legally sound business structure is a much more complex task.

Mistakes made at the company formation stage often appear later in shareholder disputes, director liability issues, transfer of shares, poorly drafted corporate documents, investor negotiations or daily management problems.

Starting, managing and developing a business requires not only a business idea, financial resources and entrepreneurial skills, but also a proper legal framework. This is why professional corporate law services are important not only at the registration stage, but also throughout the company’s operation and growth.

TB Legal provides practical, business-oriented and strategic corporate law services in Georgia for local companies, foreign investors, SMEs and international business clients.

II. Why Corporate Legal Services Are Important

Corporate law and the Georgian Law on Entrepreneurs determine how a company is established, how shareholders’ rights are structured, how directors are appointed, how corporate decisions are made, how shares are transferred and how a company should be managed in a legally secure way.

Corporate legal support is especially important when you are starting a new business in Georgia, registering an LLC or another legal entity, establishing a company with a foreign partner or investor, preparing a charter or shareholders’ agreement, defining the powers of a director, buying or selling shares, restructuring a company or organizing internal corporate documentation.

Professional corporate legal services help businesses avoid the legal uncertainty that often arises when a company is formally registered, but its internal governance rules are not properly structured.

III. Company Registration and Selection of Legal Form

TB Legal assists clients in selecting the appropriate legal form for their business in Georgia. Depending on the business model and ownership structure, this may include a limited liability company, joint stock company, general partnership, limited partnership, cooperative or individual entrepreneur status.

We prepare the documents required for company registration, review the company name, assist with the legal address issue and represent clients before the Public Registry.

For foreign investors and international clients, we also explain the practical steps of company formation in Georgia, including shareholder structure, director

appointment, registration documentation and post-registration legal matters.

IV. Incorporation Documents and Company Charter

One of the most important issues during company formation is the proper drafting of incorporation documents and the company charter.

A standard charter is not always sufficient, especially when the company has several shareholders, a foreign founder, an investor, an active director or future risks related to the transfer of shares. In such cases, the company needs more detailed, business-oriented and legally sound documentation.

Within our corporate law services, TB Legal prepares incorporation agreements, standard and customized charters, shareholders’ agreements, restrictions on share transfers, documents related to director appointment and authority, and draft corporate resolutions.

Our goal is to ensure that the company’s internal documents are not merely formal, but actually useful for governance, decision-making and risk prevention.

V. Corporate Governance Structure

A company’s legal structure does not end with registration. A business needs clear internal rules defining who makes decisions, what authority the director has, when shareholder approval is required and how the company should be managed to prevent future disputes.

TB Legal assists clients in establishing an effective corporate governance structure, including the separation of powers between shareholders and directors, preparation of service agreements with directors, internal decision-making rules, prevention of conflicts of interest and legal organization of corporate documentation.

Proper corporate governance is particularly important for companies with several shareholders, foreign investors, active management, financing needs or long-term growth plans.

VI. Shareholders’ Agreements and Internal Corporate Risks

A shareholders’ agreement is particularly important when a business has two or more founders, different shareholdings, different levels of control, the possibility of future investor entry or a risk of decision-making deadlock.

A shareholders’ agreement may regulate additional rights and obligations of shareholders, conditions for the transfer of shares, pre-emption rights, deadlock resolution mechanisms, non-compete obligations, confidentiality duties, exit rights and share buyout mechanisms.

Such agreements are often essential for preventing future management crises, uncertainty between shareholders and lengthy corporate disputes.

VII. Share Purchase, Share Transfer and M&A Transactions

If you plan to purchase shares in a Georgian company, sell shares, add a new shareholder, bring in an investor or merge companies, the legal structure of the transaction should be assessed in advance.

TB Legal assists clients with preparing share purchase agreements, conducting legal review of the company, managing shareholder approvals and Public Registry procedures, assessing transaction terms, analyzing competition law risks and, where necessary, communicating with the relevant competition authority.

Our experience in competition law is particularly valuable in M&A transactions where merger control issues, concentration notification or approval from the competition authority may be required.

VIII. Contractual Support for Businesses

After company registration, businesses constantly need legally sound contracts with clients, suppliers, distributors, employees, service providers, contractors and business partners.

TB Legal provides full contractual support for companies, including drafting commercial contracts, reviewing existing agreements, supporting negotiations, assessing contractual risks and properly structuring liability, penalty clauses and termination mechanisms.

Our goal is to ensure that each contract is not only formally correct, but also practical, enforceable and aligned with the company’s commercial interests.
