Georgia
Overview of CbC reporting requirements
Consolidated group revenue threshold: EUR 750m
Filing deadline: before 31 December in the year following the accounting year
The domestic legal and administrative framework
Georgia has a number of recommendations to improve the legislation. These recommendations remain in place since the 2021/2023 peer review.
The definition of Group
Georgia’s legislation does not include a definition of a Group. It is recommended that Georgia amend the legislation to include the definition of a Group in line with the standard.
Contents of the Country-by-Country report
The information included in the legislation does not include the template of the Country-by-Country report and does not include any details of what should be included under each heading in the report. The report includes a recommendation that Georgia publish the full content and format requirements of the CbC Report.
Deadline for filing of the Country-by-Country report
The filing deadline for a report in Georgia is 31 December of a year following the reporting year. Where a reporting year ends between 1 January and 30 December this will mean that the filing deadline is more than 12 months after that reporting year-end.
It is recommended that Georgia take steps to amend legislation or otherwise ensure that the filing deadline is not more than 12 months from the end of the reporting fiscal year.
The exchange of information framework
Georgia has no bilateral relationships in place for the exchange of CbC reports nor processes to ensure that the exchange of information is conducted in a manner consistent with the terms of reference relating to the exchange of information framework.
It is recommended that Georgia take steps to have qualifying competent authority agreements in effect with jurisdictions of the Inclusive Framework that meet the confidentiality, consistency and appropriate use conditions and with which Georgia has an international exchange of information agreement in effect that allows for the automatic exchange of tax information. This recommendation remains in place since the 2017/2018 peer review.
It is recommended that Georgia take steps to implement the necessary processes or written procedures to ensure that the exchange of information is conducted in a manner consistent with the terms of reference relating to the exchange of information framework. This recommendation remains in place since the 2018/2019 peer review.
Appropriate use of CbC reports
Georgia does not yet have controls in place to ensure the appropriate use of CbC reports.
It is recommended that Georgia take steps to ensure that the appropriate use condition is met ahead of the first exchanges of information. This recommendation remains in place since the 2017/2018 peer review.
