SMEs to be Exempted from Lease Payments for Three Months

"The Georgian government has decided to exempt up to 600 small and medium entrepreneurs from lease payments for three months," Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze announced at a briefing today. 

The above applies to entrepreneurs who have a space or land leased from City Hall for their entrepreneurial activities.

He added that Tbilisi City Hall continues taking measures to protect the population from the spread of coronavirus and to alleviate the condition of entrepreneurs in the current situation.

Kaladze noted that Tbilisi City Hall has already exempted the owners of open cafes that had leased land from the Tbilisi municipality from lease payments for a whole year.

Up to 600 small and medium entrepreneurs will be exempted from lease payments in March, April, and May.
