Impact Assessment

Antitrust Compliance

What does antitrust compliance mean?

It means aligning business practice with the Law on Competition: the ban on abusing dominance, the ban on competition-restricting agreements, and the rules on concentrations. Violations are punished with percentage sanctions tied to turnover.

How is dominance established?

Dominance is determined on the relevant market taking into account market shares alongside entry barriers, production-expansion barriers, buyer market power, availability of raw-material sources, vertical integration and network effects. The agency determines market share and power using its methodological guidelines.

Which agreements are prohibited?

Agreements, decisions or concerted practices whose purpose or effect is to restrict competition: price fixing, limiting production, markets, technological development or investments, market sharing, discriminatory conditions and unrelated tied conditions. An efficiency exemption may be justified where the agreement improves production and consumer welfare.

What fines are provided?

For abuse of dominance and restrictive agreements the fine reaches 5 % of aggregate turnover of the previous financial year, and up to 10 % on repetition. Violating the concentration-notification obligation draws up to 5 %, and a natural person 10 000 GEL. The fine must be paid within 1 month.

Antitrust Compliance: What the Law Requires of Your Business

Antitrust compliance means keeping your business inside the boundaries set by the Georgian Law on Competition: not abusing a dominant position, refusing competition-restricting agreements, and observing the rules governing concentrations. This page is built on the individual articles of that law and shows you where the risk is highest and how to avoid it.

The article on the authorized organ identifies the enforcer: the organ empowered to enforce the requirements of the law is the independent public-law legal entity established on its basis — the Georgian Competition and Consumer Protection Agency. In addition, in cases provided for by the law, this competence is exercised by the regulator of a regulated sphere of the economy. The practical implication for you: if you operate in a regulated sector, you will also deal with the sector regulator on competition matters.
