BiGaO3 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3c space group. Ga(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 26°. Bi(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms.

The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 26°. There are three shorter (1.96 Å) and three longer (2.11 Å) Ga(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Bi(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.33 Å) and three longer (2.48 Å) Bi(1)-O(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
