Bangladeshi passport holders need a visa to enter Georgia. The easiest option is the eVisa, which you apply for online before you travel. As of 2026, the eVisa is the standard route for tourism and short visits.

Overstaying is expensive and risky
Overstay fines are about 10 GEL (~3.70 USD) per day with no official cap, but repeated overstays can lead to deportation and a ban. Always leave before your visa expires.
Airlines may enforce 6-month passport validity
Georgian law doesn't require 6 months validity beyond departure, but many airlines do. Check with your carrier before flying to avoid being denied boarding.
