rs.ge in English: what is translated, what is not, and how to file without knowing Georgian

There is no full English version of the Georgian taxpayer cabinet. The public site rs.ge has an English section and the login page of eservices.rs.ge offers an ENGLISH VERSION link, but the declaration forms, menus and messages inside the cabinet are largely Georgian, and there is no Russian version at all. In practice foreigners file the monthly small business declaration with browser translation plus a short list of Georgian terms, or through an authorized accountant. This guide explains what is translated, what is not, how far browser translation gets you, and the words you will meet on the way to the form.

What is in English

• rs.ge, the public site. News, general information about taxes, contacts, some legislation summaries. The language switch is in the header. This is where the English page about e-services lives.
• The login page of eservices.rs.ge. An ENGLISH VERSION link at the top translates the login form and the SMS step. How to get access and pass the code is in the rs.ge login guide.
• Parts of the cabinet. Some screens carry English labels; the coverage is uneven and changes with updates. Treat it as a bonus, not a plan.

What stays in Georgian

Declaration forms, the lists of declaration types, dropdown values, error messages, notifications from the Revenue Service and the personal account card with your balance. Official letters arrive in Georgian. This is why a working routine needs either translation or a person who reads Georgian.

Working with browser translation

Chrome, Edge and Safari translate the page in place; Firefox needs an extension. Rules that save mistakes:

1. Translate to read, switch back to type. Enter numbers and dates only with translation off: translated pages sometimes swap decimal separators or shift labels relative to fields.
2. Learn the abbreviations. დღგ is VAT, ს/პ ნომერი is the personal or identification number, ი/მ is an individual entrepreneur. Translators tend to leave them or render them oddly.
3. Dropdown codes do not translate. Declaration types and periods appear as Georgian names, sometimes with codes. Match them against the glossary rather than guessing.
4. PDFs are not translated. A declaration downloaded as PDF stays Georgian; read the on-screen version instead.
5. Check the month twice. The single most common filing error for foreigners is the wrong reporting period, and translation does not help with it.

The path to the small business declaration, in Georgian

The exact labels change with portal updates, but the words stay the same. On the way to the monthly form you will meet:

Georgian	English	Where
დეკლარაციები	Declarations	main menu
ყოველთვიური	Monthly	declaration type
მცირე ბიზნესის სტატუსის მქონე პირის დეკლარაცია	Declaration of a person with small business status	declaration type
საანგარიშო პერიოდი	Reporting period	form header
დასაბეგრი ბრუნვა	Taxable turnover	the field you fill in
გადასახადი	Tax	calculated by the system
შენახვა	Save	button
გაგზავნა	Submit / send	button
გაგზავნილი დეკლარაციები	Submitted declarations	list to verify acceptance

How the numbers are prepared is in the filing guide: the form needs the month's turnover in lari, with each foreign-currency payment converted at the NBG rate for the day it arrived. MyIncome.ge converts every payment at the NBG rate for its arrival date and adds up the month's turnover and 1% tax, so the only thing left to find in Georgian is the field; signing up is free.

Paying and checking the balance

After the declaration, the tax is paid by the 15th: from a Georgian bank account to the treasury details shown in the cabinet, or by card on the portal. The balance is on the personal account card (პირადი აღრიცხვის ბარათი): დავალიანება is a debt, ზედმეტად გადახდილი თანხა an overpayment. A zero balance a day or two after paying means the month is closed.

If you made a mistake

A wrong number is corrected with an adjusted declaration (დაზუსტებული დეკლარაცია) for the same period; the tax is recalculated and any underpayment accrues interest at 0.05% a day until paid. A wrong period is corrected the same way: adjust the wrong month to zero and file the right one. Do not leave it for the next month.

Other ways around the language

• An authorized accountant. Added in the cabinet by personal number with filing-only rights, without sharing your password. Typical for the first months.
• A service centre. Revenue Service centres handle access, phone changes and questions in person; bring your passport.
• The information centre, 2 299 299 (from abroad +995 32 2 299 299).
