Current and upcoming procurement changes

The main commencement of the new Law on Public Procurement has been postponed to 1 January 2030, rather than 1 January 2027. Separate amendments to the existing system have their own effective dates. The agency identifies subcontractor changes from September 2026 and further blacklist, related-operator and procurement-instrument provisions from 1 December 2026.

Complaint fees changed from 1 September 2026: the agency states 2% of the relevant procurement value, with a GEL 500 minimum and GEL 1,000 maximum for covered complaints. Check the tender, decision, deadline, eligibility and applicable fee before filing. Source: State Procurement Agency notices.
