Georgia's company registry is operated by the National Agency of Public Registry (NAPR) under napr.gov.ge. It holds the official record of all registered businesses — their legal form, registration date, directors, founders, and status. Registry extracts (ამონაწერი) are certified public documents that serve as the authoritative source of company information.

The National Agency of Public Registry (საჯარო რეესტრის ეროვნული სააგენტო, NAPR) is the Georgian government agency responsible for registering legal entities, real property rights, and intellectual property. It operates under the Ministry of Justice of Georgia and maintains the authoritative business registry.
NAPR registers all commercial entities (companies, individual entrepreneurs, partnerships), non-commercial entities (NNLEs), and branches of foreign companies. Registration is mandatory for any entity conducting business in Georgia. NAPR's legal foundation is the Law of Georgia on Entrepreneurs (see matsne.gov.ge for the official consolidated text).
The registry is publicly searchable at napr.gov.ge. Basic searches by name or registration code are free. Certified extracts (ამონაწერი) require a fee and can be ordered online or in person at NAPR service centers.
A registry extract (ამონაწერი, amonaweri) is an official NAPR document that certifies the current registered state of a company. It includes: full legal name, registration code, legal form, date of registration, registered address, authorized capital, complete list of directors and founders with their IDs and ownership percentages, and all historical amendments.
Extracts are time-stamped and bear an official NAPR seal. They are the standard document required by banks for account opening, by courts as evidence of corporate identity, and by foreign counterparties for KYC purposes. An electronic extract from the NAPR portal carries the same legal weight as a paper extract.
To obtain an extract, visit napr.gov.ge, search for the company by name or code, and select the extract service. The fee varies by urgency (standard vs. expedited). For cross-checking only, GE360 provides a free summary dossier on /search — but this is not a certified document and does not replace the official NAPR extract.
Georgia's Law on Entrepreneurs defines several business forms: Limited Liability Company (LLC / შპს), Joint-Stock Company (JSC / სს), General Partnership (GP / სოლიდარული პასუხისმგებლობის საზოგადოება), Limited Partnership (LP / კომანდიტური საზოგადოება), Individual Entrepreneur (IE / ინდივიდუალური მეწარმე), and foreign company branches. Non-commercial entities (NNLE / სსიპ) are registered under a separate law.
Each form has different liability, governance, and reporting requirements. The LLC (შპს) is by far the most popular structure for domestic businesses due to its simplicity and limited liability. See the Georgian company types guide for a detailed comparison.
As of the GE360 registry snapshot, Georgia has 819,283 registered businesses [GE360 registry data, 2026] in total. Breaking this down by legal form: 332,300 LLCs (შპს) [GE360 registry data, 2026], 436,738 individual entrepreneurs (IE) [GE360 registry data, 2026], and the remainder split among JSCs, NNLEs, partnerships, and branches.
Of all registered entities, only 169,661 are currently active [GE360 registry data, 2026]. The large number of inactive entities reflects historical registrations, dissolved businesses, and entities that were registered but never activated. When searching for a counterparty, always filter for active status.

GE360 is an independent, private aggregator — not a government service. It is not affiliated with NAPR or any Georgian government agency. GE360 adds value by: combining NAPR company data with enforcement records, mortgage/pledge data, procurement contracts, and court enforcement records into a single dossier; enabling full-text and transliterated-name search; and providing an interactive investigation board for mapping corporate ownership chains.
NAPR remains the authoritative source for legally certified documents. For compliance and legal proceedings, always obtain the official NAPR extract. GE360 is designed for research, due diligence preparation, and risk screening — not as a replacement for official documents.
