Details
Data is available for free; no charge is required for any site functions.
A search interface to access the full data is available at the link given.
The data is not machine-readable because most important data, including data on company ownership and directors, is in PDFs and/or DjVu format.
The data is not available in bulk. Transparency International Georgia (an NGO) runs a web scraper which republishes the information in a machine-readable format with an API at http://www.companyinfo.ge/en/ . However, this information is not timely, and the Public Registry recently installed a CAPTCHA which prevents the web scraper from functioning.
All government-generated information in Georgia is legally in the public domain. However, there is no licensing information included with this data set.
The data set pulls directly from the central database of company registrations and is therefore always up to date.
