TL;DR

A common way to look for jobs is LinkedIn with the Remote and Georgia filters. After you’re hired, you can typically open a Georgian bank card for salary payments, and proof of income is usually requested as a salary certificate or income certificate.

For an expatriate with a rare, in-demand specialty, an employer may be able to arrange a work permit. The employer generally needs to show that no suitable Georgian citizen could be hired; registering as an individual entrepreneur is another route, with separate requirements.
