Before opening a private tutoring centre, the decisive legal fact must be stated plainly: Georgia has no special licence or permit regulation for tutoring centres. The commercial provision of educational services falls under the general regime of the Law of Georgia on Entrepreneurs: the choice lies between an individual entrepreneur and an entrepreneurial company, registration is mandatory, and its procedure is precisely defined by the statute. On this page we explain which form is sensible when, what registration requires, and where the boundary runs between individual professional activity and an enterprise.
The Absence of Special Regulation — an Explanatory Fact
Educational legislation provides no special status for a private tutor as a separately regulated activity. A learning centre operating for profit is an ordinary business and functions under general enterprise legislation. This means there is no decision to “obtain a licence” — there is a decision about the legal form and the registration process.
