Good to know
- Since 1 January 2026, every tourist entering Georgia must hold a valid health and accident insurance policy — this applies regardless of nationality or visa-free status; it is separate from visa rules.
- Minimum coverage: 30,000 GEL (approx. USD 11,000 / EUR 10,000), covering the entire stay from arrival to departure.
- Policy must be presented in paper or electronic form, written in Georgian or English, issued by a Georgian or foreign insurer.
- Rule derives from Georgia's Law on Tourism (Art. 12), implemented by Government Decree No. 602 (in force since 1 Jan 2026); not retroactive.
- Exempt: accredited diplomatic/consular/international-organisation staff and family; persons covered by international treaties; international freight/passenger drivers.
- Enforcement is inconsistent in practice — some travellers report not being asked for proof at Tbilisi airport or land borders, others are questioned — but carrying proof is strongly advised.
- EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, Japan and many other nationalities continue to enter visa-free; others can apply via the e-Visa portal, evisa.gov.ge.
