How დღგ (vat) in Georgia is calculated
Article 166 of the Tax Code is one sentence: *"დღგ-ის განაკვეთია 18 პროცენტი"* — the VAT rate is 18%. There are no reduced rates; supplies that are not taxed are **exempt** under articles 170–172, some with and some without the right to deduct input VAT.
**The registration test is a rolling twelve months.** Article 165 obliges a taxable person to apply within **2 business days** of the day its VAT-taxable supplies over any 12 consecutive calendar months exceed **GEL 100,000** — and VAT is owed from the very supply that crosses the line, not from the start of the next period.
To add VAT multiply by 1.18; to take it out of a VAT-inclusive price divide by 1.18 — the VAT inside GEL 118 is GEL 18. Estimate, not tax advice.
