Buying a car in Georgia: Points to keep in mind

  • To buy a car in Georgia, you do not need to have a Georgian residence card. You will be able to buy the car only with your passport. 
  • The process of buying a car in Georgia consists of checking the car, buying the car, doing all the administrative procedures including filing documents, customs procedures in Georgia, transferring the car to the destination country, and customs procedures in the destination country to get license plates.
  • The car you buy must have a Georgian license plate, which includes three types of transit license plates, export license plates, and national license plates.
  • Checking the history of the car by the chassis number or VIN code 

(by checking the VIN code of cars imported from the United States of America and Canada, you can see the complete history of the car from the moment of production until today. 

For example, on what date the car arrived in Georgia, how many times it was serviced, and whether it had an accident or not, and you can even see the photo of the accident, where the car was damaged.)

  • Since 90% of imported cars have worked and there is a possibility that they have had an accident before, you should pay attention that the car you are considering has not fallen into the water or drowned during a flood. Because the car’s electrical system will face a serious problem after a while.
  • Check the car for electrical problems before buying it in a special repair shop.
