Check before you travel
- Current consolidated Ordinance No. 255 (latest amendment 24 February 2026, No. 80) is behind a matsne.gov.ge subscription and geoconsul.gov.ge renders by script (browser access to that site was not permitted). The 1 year list above is the original 2015 annex (94 entries) and is the confirmed official part.
- Post-2015 changes (JO and DM 1 year; CL FJ MK PY PE UY 90/180; IR 45 days; CN, HK, MO 30 days) come from secondary references, not read on an official page. Earlier removals (1 Sept 2014: BO CU DM GT IQ PY PE KN LC SR TT) mean DM, PY and PE were re-added later if correct.
- e-Visa eligible list and stay lengths (90/180 vs 30/120) come from secondary references; evisa.gov.ge only shows a country selector. Fee (USD 20 + 2% + USD 15 DuVerify) is official.
- Ordinance No. 256 amendment of 17 April 2025 (No. 122): the full list of the 17 affected nationalities was not confirmed officially (news names AF, BD, GH, ET among them). Effective date reported as 17 April or 16 May 2025.
- Secondary sources give the visa free count as 94 to 98 countries; exact current count not confirmed.
