In the first half of 2025, trade volume between Iran and Georgia climbed to $149.5 million, marking an increase of $16.5 million compared with the same period a year earlier.
Overall, economic cooperation between the two countries has picked up steam in recent years as in 2024, the value of trade between Iran and Georgia reached a record $322 million, nearly three times the level recorded in 2012.
The upward trend was also visible in 2023, when Iranian exports to Georgia stood at around $241 million, up from $232 million the year before. Imports from Georgia in that same year were estimated at nearly $30 million. Overall, the total bilateral trade volume in 2023 came to around $271 million.
Taken together, trade between Iran and Georgia has risen by about 23% over the past two years. With this growth trajectory and the available capacities on both sides, further expansion in bilateral commerce can reasonably be expected in the near future.
Looking at the path of cooperation so far, projections suggest that Iran-Georgia economic relations will continue to grow in the coming years. By addressing existing obstacles and strengthening cooperation infrastructure, the two sides could turn their economic partnership into a successful regional model.
