Customs clearance calculator — Georgia
Turnkey cost of a car delivered to your city. Destination country — Georgia: duty, recycling fee and charges are calculated under its own law. A manager gives the exact figure once the car is picked.
We calculate by the customs rules
The customs duty and the recycling fee are worked out from the age, engine displacement and power output, in the same order they will be worked out at the border.
Straight to your city
The total already includes logistics and delivery, not just the price of the car abroad. Cities and countries of import are up to you.

Customs specifics — Georgia
What customs clearance is made up of — Georgia
Excise duty — the main payment
The rate per 1 cc × the engine displacement, after which 5% is added to the total for each year the car has been in use. For cars up to six years old it is 1.5 GEL per cc, for cars over six years old 4.5 GEL per cc.
Import duty
Charged on the customs value under the Georgian tariff. Set against the excise duty, its contribution to the final amount is small.
VAT
A rate of 18% on the customs value including the duty and the excise duty — on a commercial import.
What there is none of here
Georgian law makes no provision for a recycling fee at all. Nor are there any emergency call system requirements — you pay only the excise duty, the duty and VAT.
What affects the cost — Georgia
Age of the car
It counts twice over: it sets the base rate (the six-year mark — 1.5 against 4.5 GEL per cc) and adds 5% to the excise duty for each year in use. A 2019 car with a 2 000 cc engine became dearer to clear after the changes of 2026, from about 1 600 to 9 000 GEL.
Position of the steering wheel
For right-hand-drive cars the rate of excise duty is tripled: the same car costs three times what a left-hand-drive one costs. Importing is not prohibited, though — it is only a question of the amount.
Engine type
Hybrids pay 40% of the standard rate of excise duty — a substantial relief that a conventional combustion engine does not get.
Engine displacement
A direct multiplier in the formula: every extra cubic centimetre is multiplied by the rate and by the supplement for age.
Status of a “classic” car
The threshold has been lowered from 40 to 30 years — such cars are cleared under separate rules, which has made things cheaper for collectors’ examples.
Clearance and getting the plates — Georgia
Import requirements
From April 2026 cars over six years old may be imported, but at the increased rate of 4.5 GEL per cc. There is no hard age ban of the kind Azerbaijan has.
Customs clearance
Declaration at the customs authority, and payment of the excise duty, the duty and VAT before release. Imported cars go through additional checks — the time depends on the status of the car and on how busy the service is.
Documents and authorities
The customs authority is the Revenue Service of the Ministry of Finance of Georgia. The SBKTS, the ZOETS and ERA-GLONASS are not used — they are EAEU documents and Georgia is not a member of the union. Instead of type approval there is a periodic roadworthiness test under Georgian rules. Registration is handled by the Service Agency of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and a Georgian technical passport is issued.
Registration and number plates
Registration is handled by the Service Agency of the Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs. The plate format is two letters, three digits, two letters; a particular number can be chosen and reserved in advance through the agency’s portal. The process is usually quick.
If the car then goes on to Russia
Georgia is not an EAEU member, so local clearance does not stand in for Russian customs clearance — on import into Russia the payments are worked out afresh. For use in Georgia the Georgian documents are enough.

The calculation in the calculator is preliminary and is not a public offer: rates are indexed, and the mix of payments depends on the particular car and the date of import. The calculator produces the full turnkey calculation for Russia; for the other countries the final amount is confirmed by a manager together with a customs broker, and the total is fixed in the contract.
Questions and answers
It is a preliminary estimate based on the rates in force and today’s Central Bank of Russia exchange rate. It shows the order of the turnkey amount but is not a public offer: the total depends on the specific car, its documents and the date the paperwork is done. Your manager gives the exact figure after sourcing.
