Italian Interpreting in Tbilisi and Italian Localization for Georgian Businesses

Italian interpreter at the notary and for property purchases

Georgian law requires an interpreter for any party to a notarial act who does not speak Georgian, and the notary records the interpreter in the deed. Italian buyers of apartments in Tbilisi and Batumi, of houses in Kakheti and of premises for restaurants and hotels are regular clients at our notary's office at Agmashenebeli 117, where the interpreter is part of the appointment: you receive the bilingual Georgian-Italian draft in advance, the interpreter reads each clause with you at the signing, and the notary certifies the act in one sitting. Procure, testamenti covering Georgian property, contratti matrimoniali and company charters are handled the same way. We also accompany clients to the Public Registry, to banks for account opening and mortgages, and to the House of Justice, and we translate the Public Registry extract and cadastral plan into Italian for the client's notaio or bank in Italy.

Embassy, administrative and court interpreting

Georgian applicants attend interviews at the Italian Embassy for visas and citizenship, and some ask for an interpreter to prepare or accompany them where permitted; Georgian offices - the Public Service Development Agency for residence permits, the Revenue Service, the Service Agency - need a Georgian-speaking interpreter for Italian clients. In Georgian courts, civil and family matters involving Italian parties require the parties to bring their own interpreter, and ours are experienced in the procedural vocabulary of both legal systems, including diritto di famiglia and successioni that arise from mixed marriages and Georgian property in Italian estates. We also interpret at police statements and notary depositions, and translate the case file so what you read matches what is said.

Wine, food, machinery and business interpreting

Italian expertise runs through Georgian wine and food: Italian oenologists consult for Georgian wineries, Italian manufacturers supply bottling lines, presses, tanks, pasta and dairy equipment, bakery ovens and packaging machines, and Italian technicians fly in to install and service them. Our interpreters accompany installations, commissioning and training sessions on the factory floor, with the technical vocabulary of viticulture, food processing and mechanical engineering in both languages. Beyond that, Italian companies in construction, energy, fashion retail, ceramics and hospitality operate in Georgia, and we provide consecutive interpreters for negotiations, audits and site visits, and simultaneous interpreting with booth equipment for conferences and government events, including Georgian-Italian-English configurations and remote simultaneous interpreting through Zoom. Trade fair support for Vinitaly, Cibus, SIAL and Milan fashion and design weeks is available through remote and on-site partners.

Medical, tourism and personal interpreting

Italian visitors and residents use Georgian clinics for dental work, diagnostics, IVF and surgery, and an interpreter at the consultation, followed by translation of the records into Italian for the medico di base and insurer, is a frequent request. Tourism operators host Italian groups in Tbilisi, Kakheti, Svaneti and on the Black Sea, and we supply Italian-speaking guides-interpreters for tours, wine tastings and cultural events; Italian is one of the most requested guide languages after English and Russian. For personal matters - school enrollment meetings, landlord negotiations, dealing with utilities and telecom operators, the Service Agency for vehicle registration - we offer hourly accompaniment in Tbilisi.

Italian localization for Georgian companies selling into Italy

Italy is a natural market for Georgian wine, mineral water, hazelnuts, tourism, real estate and medical tourism, and Italian buyers expect Italian-language websites, catalogs and documentation of a very specific register. Localization for this market means adapting tone to Italian commercial conventions, converting units and prices, respecting Italian typographic and legal requirements (privacy and cookie notices under Italian implementation of GDPR, Codice del Consumo disclosures), and writing meta titles and descriptions that match what Italian users search. We localize websites, booking engines, wine catalogs and schede tecniche, real estate listings, restaurant menus, mobile apps and e-commerce stores, working directly in your CMS, in JSON and XLIFF or in design files, and we test the result on the live site with native Italian editors doing the final pass.

Proofreading Italian written by non-native speakers, and booking

Georgian organizations write a great deal of Italian: applications to Italian foundations and the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation, academic articles, cultural project proposals, hotel and winery brochures, legal opinions for Italian clients. Native Italian editors polish that text so it reads as if written in Milan or Rome, correcting agreement, register, prepositions and the false friends between Italian and English that Georgian writers often carry over, and we return tracked changes so your team learns from every edit. For companies producing Italian content continuously we offer a monthly editing retainer.

To book an interpreter, send the date, place or meeting link, the subject and any documents to prepare from. Consecutive interpreting is billed hourly with a two-hour minimum on site in Tbilisi and no minimum beyond the first hour for remote sessions; technical installations are billed by day; simultaneous work is billed by half-day or day with two interpreters alternating. Same-day bookings are usually possible during office hours, and installations and conferences should be reserved a week ahead.
