Rules for working while studying

Working while studying in Georgia

Student status does not by itself replace employment-contract or immigration requirements.

EU/EEA/Swiss citizens

Georgian citizens and foreign nationals have different immigration bases; do not generalise work rights from student status.

Third-country nationals

Foreign nationals must verify entry/residence basis and the legality of the specific employment with the competent authority.

Permit and employer duties

Verify with the Public Service Development Agency and current legal texts.

Working hours

UniNavio does not invent a universal student limit; working time is governed by the contract and Labour Code.

Tax and pay

Tax, social contributions and minimum or sector pay depend on contract and status. Verify officially before signing.
