International banking without another flight.
Georgia has developed an established banking system that can be particularly interesting for internationally minded clients looking to diversify where they bank.
The standard procedure is to visit Tbilisi and complete the bank account-opening process in person.
That is the part we've changed.
Through the local banking network we work with, the onboarding process can be arranged remotely, including an interview with the bank, so you do not need to fly to Georgia simply to open the account.
The banking setup I personally use in Georgia.
I'm not recommending a banking jurisdiction I've only researched from behind a desk. I personally bank in Georgia.
Solo is the premium banking proposition within the Bank of Georgia ecosystem.
For internationally minded clients, it can provide a useful additional banking relationship outside their primary jurisdiction.

Global One is an independent professional service provider. We are not a bank and not part of Bank of Georgia. We work directly with bankers at Bank of Georgia who handle remote onboarding for our clients. All applications are subject to the bank's own onboarding, KYC and compliance checks, and the bank alone decides whether to open an account. Approval is not guaranteed. Nothing on this page is legal, tax or financial advice.
Before you open your account.
Do I need to travel to Georgia?
No trip is needed to apply. We work directly with bankers at Bank of Georgia and facilitate remote account opening with Bank of Georgia and SOLO: you complete the application online and the bank's onboarding by video call, from wherever you are.
How does the remote process work?
You pay the service fee, then complete our online application: the bank's KYC questionnaire plus your passport and signature. We review it and submit it directly to our banking contacts at Bank of Georgia. You then complete the bank's video onboarding, after which the bank makes its decision and informs you by email.
Is account approval guaranteed?
No. The bank always has the final say. That's why you get a full refund of our fee if we decide not to submit your application, or if the bank declines it.
What does it cost?
Our one-off service fee is USD 600. Once your account is open, SOLO charges its own membership fee, set by the bank (at the time of writing around USD 105 per year for SOLO Premium). The bank may also charge other fees, such as a possible 50 GEL application review fee. Bank fees are paid to the bank and are outside our control.
What support does Global One provide?
We review your profile, communicate the relevant document requirements, prepare your case for the banking process, connect you with the local banking team and support you through the remote interview and account-opening process.
What documents do I need?
To apply: your international passport, a close-up photo of your passport picture and a photo or scan of your signature. The bank may ask for more, such as proof of your income, source of funds or business activity, before or after opening the account.
What happens to my passport copy?
As a professional service provider, we handle your documents confidentially. They are sent over an encrypted connection and stored encrypted on our own server, only accessible to Global One. We share them only with Bank of Georgia for your application, never use them for anything else, and delete them from our systems within 30 days, in line with data protection rules (GDPR).
Is this only for high-net-worth clients?
No. The service is designed for internationally minded clients who want an additional banking relationship and for whom a Georgian banking setup is appropriate.
We bring the Georgian banking process to you.
Instead of arranging a trip to Georgia and figuring out the banking process yourself, you follow four clear steps. Most of it happens from your laptop.
