Georgia Passport, Visa, Embassy & Consulate Guide
Georgia, located in the Caucasus region of Asia with its capital in Tbilisi, welcomes millions of visitors each year under a notably open entry policy. Depending on your nationality, you may be eligible for visa-free entry, an eVisa, or may need to apply for a visa through a Georgian diplomatic mission before traveling.
Entry requirements can change, and the rules that apply to you depend entirely on your passport and purpose of travel. Always verify the latest requirements through Georgia's official government resources — official links are provided on this page — or by contacting the nearest Georgian embassy or consulate before your trip.
Visa & Entry Requirements
Georgia operates a tiered entry system. Many nationalities enjoy visa-free access for stays of varying durations, while others must obtain a visa before arrival or apply online via the eVisa system. A smaller number of nationalities are required to arrange a visa through a Georgian embassy or consulate in advance.
To find out exactly which category applies to your passport, consult the Ministry of Foreign Affairs resource linked on this page. Requirements can change based on diplomatic agreements, so checking official sources close to your travel date is strongly recommended.
eVisa / Electronic Travel Authorization
Georgia offers an eVisa system that allows eligible travelers to apply for a visa online before arrival, avoiding the need to visit an embassy in person. Applications are submitted through the official eVisa portal linked on this page.
For current information on eligibility, required documents, fees, and processing times, refer exclusively to the official eVisa portal. Do not rely on third-party services for this information, as fees and procedures are subject to change and only the official portal reflects current rules.
Visa on Arrival & Visa-Free Travel
Georgia extends visa-free entry to citizens of a large number of countries, making it one of the more accessible destinations in the region. Visa-free travelers are typically permitted to stay for a defined period — commonly up to one year for certain nationalities — though this varies by passport.
To confirm whether your nationality qualifies for visa-free entry and to check the permitted length of stay, review the eligibility lists published by Georgia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs using the official links on this page.
Passport Validity & Entry Rules
Most countries require that your passport remain valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay in Georgia, though Georgia's own requirements may differ. Ensure your passport has sufficient blank pages for entry and exit stamps.
Travelers should also be aware that entry may be refused if your passport contains stamps or visas from certain regions or territories. Review current entry rules via the official Ministry of Foreign Affairs link on this page before traveling.
Immigration & Customs
Upon arrival in Georgia, travelers pass through immigration controls where passports and travel documents are checked. Ensure all your documents — including your visa or eVisa approval if applicable — are accessible and in order.
Georgia's customs authority enforces limits on the import and export of currency, tobacco, alcohol, and certain goods. For current customs allowances and declarations requirements, consult the official government resources linked on this page or inquire with Georgian authorities prior to travel.
Embassies & Consulates
If you require a visa that cannot be obtained via the eVisa system, or if you need consular assistance, you should contact the nearest Georgian embassy or consulate in your home country. Contact details and locations of Georgia's diplomatic missions abroad can be found through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal linked on this page.
For foreign nationals already in Georgia who require assistance from their own country's diplomatic mission, we recommend checking your home government's travel advisory website for embassy locations and emergency contact information in Tbilisi.
Emergency Assistance Abroad
If you encounter an emergency while in Georgia — such as a lost or stolen passport, a medical crisis, or a legal issue — your first point of contact should be your home country's embassy or consulate in Tbilisi. Register your travel plans with your home country's official traveler registration program before departure when possible.
Georgian citizens requiring emergency consular assistance abroad should contact Georgia's nearest diplomatic mission. Mission contact details are available via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs link on this page.
