Premium banking for international lives

## Banking for your life across borders.

A premium Georgian banking relationship can be particularly useful for cosmopolitan clients who travel, work, retire or manage their lives across borders. It combines a multi-currency IBAN account, internationally usable cards, digital access and—where included in the selected package—a direct relationship with a dedicated banker.

01

### International business people

For executives, entrepreneurs and investors who value direct communication, multiple currencies and support when a transfer requires bank documentation.

02

### Expats & retired clients

For people living in Georgia permanently or seasonally who need local GEL payments alongside access to EUR, USD and international card use.

03

### Digital nomads

For remote professionals who can clearly document contracts, income, tax residence and the expected international use of the account.

04

### Frequent travellers

For internationally mobile clients interested in premium Visa, Mastercard or AMEX options, travel privileges and responsive relationship service.

DIRECT RELATIONSHIP**Your dedicated banker**

English-speaking support through the bank’s available direct channels, potentially including WhatsApp.

What the relationship changes

## A dedicated banker you can speak to.

Your banker can clarify the bank’s procedures, coordinate card or product requests, explain which evidence is needed for transfers and connect you with relevant specialist teams. They do not bypass compliance, guarantee transactions or replace formal bank instructions—but direct communication can make an international banking relationship more practical.

[Explore the premium relationship ↗](https://bankaccount.ge/banking-products/#dedicated-banker)

**Who may be considered?**

European Union, UK, US, Japanese and other Asian or international citizens—including applicants who neither live in nor are resident in Georgia—may request an individual assessment. The programme’s Ambassador presentation references clients across 140+ countries. Eligibility depends on nationality, residence, tax status, occupation, source of funds, account purpose and current bank policy.

Official SOLO non-resident programme

Important answers

## Opening a Georgian Bank Account: FAQ

### Can a non-resident open a bank account in Georgia?

Yes, many foreign citizens may apply. Approval is never automatic: the bank assesses nationality, residency, source of funds, activity and the full KYC profile.

### Is remote opening possible?

It may be possible with a notarised and apostilled Power of Attorney. The process depends on the client profile, bank policy and compliance approval.

### Which currencies can be available?

Approved clients may receive a Georgian IBAN relationship with supported currency balances, commonly including GEL, USD and EUR. Georgia is not currently in SEPA, so international bank transfers are generally routed through SWIFT and may involve correspondent-bank fees.

### Can I open the account without living in Georgia?

Potentially, yes. Non-residents from more than 140 countries have been supported by the premium-banking programme, and eligible clients may be considered remotely. Residence in Georgia is not an automatic requirement, but every application remains subject to KYC and bank approval.

### What does a dedicated banker do?

For an approved client and qualifying package, a dedicated English-speaking banker can provide direct assistance with account questions, cards, transfers, supporting documents and available products. Direct channels may include telephone, email, digital messaging and WhatsApp where offered by the bank.

### Are you a bank?

No. BankAccount.ge is an independent business consultancy. We prepare and facilitate applications; the account, cards and financial products are issued and approved exclusively by the chosen licensed bank.
