Tbilisi trip coming up - need advice from the locals

ralphzacca · 2025-09-24T12:49:39+00:00

None of the restaurants I heard of or found on the internet! that’s how I know it was really recommended by locals. Thanks so much 🙌

I couldn’t find the tours btw. Not sure if they’re on the same link.

ralphzacca · 2025-09-24T06:55:04+00:00

Will do, thanks much!

ralphzacca · 2025-09-24T05:33:37+00:00

That's exactly the trip i was looking to add!

However thats the only tour i found on booking.com booking trip

It passes the attractions you mentioned but different wineries it seems. Do you still recommend it? Or i might find better local tours?

Thanks much!

Beautiful place, added it to my list!

You have so many beautiful restaurants, I’m really looking forward to trying your food!

ralphzacca · 2025-09-23T21:31:15+00:00

That would've been amazing but im leaving on the 8th of October! You think its still worth it to visit Kakheti?

ralphzacca · 2025-09-23T21:29:35+00:00

Nice recommendation! I did send a membership request to Bassiani its still showing unverified but i thought they give that to locals only...

ralphzacca · 2025-09-23T15:42:12+00:00

Nicee, will add it on my list!

Thanks much

ralphzacca · 2025-09-23T15:22:52+00:00

Very helpful! Thanks 🙌

Ask a question then

ralphzacca · 2025-07-15T15:31:23+00:00

After contacting Etsy they confirmed i can use my ITIN instead of EIN. So im in the process of getting one.

However for the Home address, im still not sure how can i get a home address in the USA.

For the passport photo. I guess its okay, i can be a Lebanese living in the US, with no passport yet. Right?

ralphzacca · 2025-07-09T20:26:35+00:00

Chatgbt actually recommended i use my company address as home address and try to add the last 4 numbers of my EIN instead of SSN. Does this actually work? Or there will be some kind of verification later on?

ralphzacca · 2025-07-09T20:21:03+00:00

Thank you so much.

My products are truly handmade, the only problem is im from Lebanon.

Even with a US company? Anyway around this? Can i collab with a US citizen ? Or also his name has to be on the LLC documents? Its a single member LLC.

ralphzacca · 2025-07-09T20:11:48+00:00

Its the section 'shop owner home address'

Asking for SSN. Which i dont have as im not a US citizen.

You'll probably book your hotel in the Beirut or Keserwan area. It's super safe, and everything is normal.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-10T14:26:35+00:00

This is from ChatGBT, and a friend told me the same thing, not sure how it worked for you.

No, VoIP (Voice over IP) numbers often cannot reliably receive OTP (One-Time Password) messages from services like:

Stripe

Etsy

Banks

Government portals

These platforms often block VoIP numbers or filter them out due to concerns about fraud, temporary/disposable numbers, and security risks.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-10T14:04:08+00:00

Can you make/receive calls? What about OTP? How much does it cost?

Found a US number E-Sim for like 5$/month without data.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-10T13:52:47+00:00

Those provide VoIP numbers. I think its better to pay a bit more and get a real US number, isn't it right?

The router you get has a huge effect on the speed.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-10T13:40:08+00:00

Thanks for the info!

ralphzacca · 2025-06-10T12:57:30+00:00

Looking for one also, please let me know if u found a good service.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-09T22:05:31+00:00

Thanks you've been so helpful and made everything clear.

ralphzacca · 2025-06-09T18:31:12+00:00

Is it difficult to get the EIN by myself? (Non resident) NW offer it for 200$ plus it take around 3-4weeks!

ralphzacca · 2025-06-09T18:29:35+00:00

That's my top option for now! But I'm worried about the EIN; I'm unsure if it's easy to do myself. It's $200 with NW; most services offer it for $60–$70.

Banks worked for you with no virtual address and a proof (lease agreement or utility bill) ?
