Valid passport
Must be valid for entire stay
Your passport needs to be valid for the full duration of your stay in Georgia. Georgia does not enforce the 6-month validity rule — just make sure it doesn't expire while you're there.Required
Return or onward ticket
Proof of departure
Immigration officers at Tbilisi and Kutaisi airports routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a printed copy or a screenshot of your booking ready — they check this before stamping you in.Required
Proof of accommodation
Hotel booking or host invitation
Carry a printed hotel reservation or a letter from your host with their address and contact number. Officers rarely ask for it, but having it ready avoids delays.Recommended
Proof of funds
Bank statement or cash
Have a bank statement showing at least $500 or the equivalent in GEL for your stay. Immigration may ask to see it if you look under-prepared — cash in USD or EUR also works.Recommended
eVisa is for tourism and short visits only

Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you enter Georgia, not from your departure date. If it expires sooner, renew your passport before applying for the eVisa.
