Georgia’s total foreign trade turnover with the European Union has reached €5 billion in 2024, based on a statement by the EU Delegation in Georgia. The EU continues to be Georgia’s largest trade partner, accounting for about 22% of the country’s overall trade.
The Delegation highlights that trade ties have grown steadily over the past decade thanks to the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) — the EU–Georgia free trade agreement in force since 2014. The DCFTA allows Georgian companies access to a market of over 450 million consumers, with zero customs duties on nearly all products, simplified border procedures and closer alignment with European standards.
The number of Georgian businesses exporting to the EU has nearly doubled during this period. The EU notes that alignment with its regulations has improved the quality and safety of Georgian exports and strengthened the competitiveness of local firms.
While many opportunities under the DCFTA are still developing, the Delegation says a decade of growth reflects the resilience and expanding ambitions of Georgian small and medium-sized enterprises on the European market.
