To ensure successful cargo declaration and smooth customs procedures in Georgia, the following documentation must be provided:

Commercial Invoice: A document confirming the value of the goods, quantity, and the transaction between the parties.
Packing List: Data regarding the cargo’s weight (Net/Gross), volume, and number of packages.
Transport Document: Depending on the type of transport: Air Waybill (AWB), Bill of Lading (B/L) for sea, or CMR for road transport.
Transport Invoice: A document confirming transportation costs. This may not be necessary if the transportation cost is already included in the Commercial Invoice.
Certificate of Origin: Required to benefit from preferential tariffs (e.g., EUR.1 or CT-1).
Export Declaration (EX1): A document from the country of origin used to verify the customs value, though it is not always a mandatory document.

The cargo clearance process in Georgia with Ganbajeba.ge is divided into 4 main stages, ensuring maximum speed and legal compliance:

Documentation Preparation and Analysis: Verification of the invoice, transport documents (CMR, AWB, B/L), and certificates of origin before the cargo is sent or arrives.

HS Code Assignment: Correct classification of goods to determine the exact customs duty, VAT, and excise tax.
Declaration (ASYCUDA): Registration of the customs declaration in the electronic system. We recommend pre-declaration using ASYCUDA, which reduces costs and accelerates the process.

After completing the process, you receive a certified declaration and the right to remove the cargo from the terminal.

Correctly determining the Customs Value is crucial for accurate tax calculation.
Ganbajeba.ge follows the methodology recognized by the World Trade Organization (WTO):

Transaction Value: The price indicated in the commercial invoice.

Documentary Substantiation: We assist you in correctly declaring freight costs to avoid artificial price adjustments by the customs authorities.

The HS Code (Harmonized System Code) is the international numerical language for product classification.
Ganbajeba.ge pays special attention to this process, as an incorrect code leads to:

Incorrect Taxation: Overpaying taxes or underpaying, which results in heavy financial penalties.
Non-tariff Barriers: An incorrect code may trigger requirements for unnecessary certificates (e.g., Phytosanitary or Veterinary) that your cargo does not actually need.
Delays: An increased risk of being assigned to the “Red Channel” due to data discrepancies.

Specific categories of cargo, such as perishable or dangerous goods, require additional permits and authorizations.

Dangerous Goods (ADR): In the case of dangerous cargo, we ensure full documentary compliance with international safety standards.

When calculating customs duties, the official exchange rate set by the National Bank of Georgia is applied.

The Time Factor: The rate used is the one effective on the day of declaration registration, not the date of invoice issuance or the date the cargo entered the country.
Risk Management: Ganbajeba.ge calculates your estimated taxes in advance, taking currency fluctuations into account. This helps you in accurate business expense planning.

Customs terminals and warehouses have different legal statuses, which directly affect your costs:

Customs Terminal: The location where cargo undergoes initial control and where the duration of stay is strictly limited.
Customs Warehouse: Ideal for those who wish to store cargo for a certain period without paying taxes immediately (e.g., for selling goods in smaller installments).
Optimization: We advise you on which regime to choose to minimize daily storage costs.

Incoterms (International Commercial Terms) are a set of international trade rules that define the distribution of responsibilities between the seller and the buyer.

Value Formation: Terms such as EXW, FOB, or CIF directly determine what costs will be added to the invoice price of the goods to calculate the final customs value.
Consultation: Ganbajeba.ge assists you in choosing the correct Incoterm during the purchasing stage. This protects you from unforeseen costs when the cargo arrives at the border.

Georgia has a mechanism in place to protect brands from the import of counterfeit products.

Control: If your product belongs to a well-known brand (e.g., Nike, Apple, Bosch), customs checks whether it is included in a special registry.
Ganbajeba.ge Support: We help you determine if you need the right holder’s consent to clear the cargo. This protects you from cargo delays or potential destruction due to intellectual property violations.

Some goods intended for civilian use can also be utilized for military purposes (e.g., certain chemicals, electronics, or drones).
