Crypto License in Georgia: VASP Registration Support
Planning to run a crypto exchange, custody wallet, transfer service or trading platform in Georgia? Since 2023, these activities require registration as a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) with the National Bank of Georgia. We guide you through the full path: from choosing the right structure to building an AML/KYC framework the regulator expects and filing a complete registration application. Our team combines Georgian company formation with financial-compliance experience, so you launch on a solid legal footing instead of guessing at requirements. (Regulatory details below reflect the status as of July 2026 and should be confirmed against the National Bank of Georgia before you commit.)
Wat we doen
- Eligibility and structuring review — we assess whether your activity (exchange, custody, transfer or portfolio/platform administration) falls under the VASP regime and map the fastest compliant route for your business model.
- Company formation as the licensed vehicle — incorporation of the Georgian entity that will hold the registration, including local office and director/representative substance the regulator looks for.
- AML/KYC framework setup — drafting the policies, risk assessment, transaction-monitoring and reporting procedures required under Georgia's AML/CFT law, aligned with FATF recommendations.
- National Bank registration application — preparing and submitting the VASP application with Fit & Proper documentation for administrators and beneficial owners, and managing the regulator's questions through to a decision.
- Ongoing compliance support — appointing/training a compliance officer, refreshing policies, and keeping the registration in good standing as rules and reporting duties evolve.
- Banking and operational setup — support opening business and settlement accounts and connecting the technical systems your VASP model depends on.
Hoe het werkt

Veelgestelde vragen
Who needs a crypto license in Georgia?
Businesses providing virtual asset services — exchange between crypto and fiat or between cryptocurrencies, custody, transfer, and trading-platform or portfolio administration — must register as a VASP with the National Bank of Georgia. Individual traders and miners are generally exempt. We confirm your status during the eligibility review.
How long does VASP registration take?
Realistically plan for several months from company setup to registration, with the National Bank reviewing a complete application over roughly two months. Timelines depend heavily on how well your AML/KYC documentation is prepared. We front-load the paperwork to reduce back-and-forth and avoid delays.
What does it cost to register a VASP?
Costs include a state registration fee (we confirm the current official fee with the National Bank before you apply, as state fees can change), company formation, office and compliance setup, plus our advisory fee. We give you a fixed, itemised quote after the discovery call so there are no surprises.
