  1. Current official routeVisa-free

    Current MFA nationality schedule: visa-free short visitors

    The current MFA diplomatic-post schedule expressly lists these nationalities as visa-exempt. China is added separately only because a current mutual ordinary-passport agreement expressly establishes its exemption.

    • The MFA page says the listed nationalities may stay visa-free for one year. China is limited by its mutual ordinary-passport agreement to a single stay of up to 30 days and an aggregate 90 days in 180 days.
    • This is only the ordinary short-visitor nationality baseline. It does not establish work, residence, study, journalism, diplomatic, official, service, crew, transit, refugee, stateless, special travel-document, dual-nationality, or purpose-specific treatment.
    • A valid third-country visa or residence permit can create a separate 90-in-180 visa-free route under Ordinance No. 256; that document/status exception is not a passport-wide classification.
    • The Law permits refusal for missing documents, bans, false data, lack of insurance or funds, security, public-order or foreign-policy grounds. Border admission remains case-specific.
    • Foreign citizens and stateless persons may enter Abkhazia only via Zugdidi and the Tskhinvali region only via Gori; other directions are prohibited. This territorial rule is not nationality-specific.

    Named eVisa countries: supporting-document cohort

    The live official eVisa country page explicitly assigns these passport/country entries to the cohort that is eligible only with a valid Schengen or OECD visa or residence-permit supporting document.

    • The portal requires a valid supporting document: a Schengen visa, a valid visa from an OECD member, or a valid Schengen/OECD residence permit.
    • For tourist eVisa applications it lists biometric photo, passport/travel-document copy, supporting document, accommodation proof, return ticket unless using other transport, travel insurance and proof of funds.
    • The electronic-visa statute requires an application through the MFA's special webpage while abroad; the portal describes eVisa as short-stay only and its FAQ says issuance follows email delivery and printing.
    • The current application page requires the travel document to remain valid at least three months after the requested Georgian visa. Where an Israeli visa is relied on at the border, it says a physical Israeli visa stamp is mandatory and an Israeli electronic visa is not accepted.
    • This does not treat a third-country visa/residence permit as passport-wide visa-free entry; it is an eVisa eligibility/document condition. Other purpose, special-document, admission, security and occupied-territory rules remain outside the classification.
    16 passport nationalities covered

  3. Current official routeeVisa

    Named eVisa countries: standard-document cohort

    The live official eVisa country page explicitly names these passport/country entries in its standard document cohort for tourist or business eVisa applications.

    • For tourists the portal lists biometric photo, passport/travel-document copy, accommodation proof, return ticket unless using other transport, travel insurance and proof of funds.
    • For business visitors it lists biometric photo, passport/travel-document copy, accommodation proof, return ticket unless using other transport, travel insurance and proof of travel purpose.
    • The electronic-visa statute requires an application through the MFA's special webpage while abroad; the portal describes eVisa as short-stay only and its FAQ says issuance follows email delivery and printing.
    • The current application page requires the travel document to remain valid at least three months after the requested Georgian visa. Where an Israeli visa is relied on at the border, it says a physical Israeli visa stamp is mandatory and an Israeli electronic visa is not accepted.
    • This does not treat a third-country visa/residence permit as passport-wide visa-free entry; it is an eVisa eligibility/document condition. Other purpose, special-document, admission, security and occupied-territory rules remain outside the classification.

  4. Current official routeeVisa

    Named eVisa countries: minimal-document cohort

    The live official eVisa country page explicitly names these passport/country entries in its third document cohort, which lists a biometric photo and travel-document copy.

    • The portal's third cohort lists a biometric photo and copy of a valid travel document/passport. It does not state that these are the only documents a case or border examination may require.
    • The electronic-visa statute requires an application through the MFA's special webpage while abroad; the portal describes eVisa as short-stay only and its FAQ says issuance follows email delivery and printing.
    • The current application page requires the travel document to remain valid at least three months after the requested Georgian visa. Where an Israeli visa is relied on at the border, it says a physical Israeli visa stamp is mandatory and an Israeli electronic visa is not accepted.
    • This does not establish visa-free entry or a visa-on-arrival route. Other purpose, special-document, admission, security and occupied-territory rules remain outside the classification.
    29 passport nationalities covered

    Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, St. Kitts and Nevis, Dominica, Guatemala, Cuba, Suriname, Bolivia, Paraguay, North Macedonia, Guyana, São Tomé and Príncipe, Timor-Leste, Micronesia, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Laos, Kiribati, Maldives, Palau Islands, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands, Marshall Islands, Comoro Islands

    Georgian citizens: entry without permit

    Georgia's entry law expressly allows a Georgian citizen to enter Georgia at any time without a permit; this is citizenship, not a foreign visitor-visa category.

    • The law says a Georgian citizen enters temporarily with a Georgian passport, a return certificate, or another treaty-recognised substitute. This policy records citizenship only and does not decide passport issuance, dual citizenship, departure limits, identity checks or other formalities.

    Palestinian ordinary passports: 2026 advance-visa visitor cohort

    The State of Palestine's current ordinary-passport schedule labels this exact destination cohort "Visa is required" and separately labels electronic and arrival-issued routes elsewhere in the same schedule. It is normalized as advance visa required.

    • This is the Ministry's ordinary-passport short-visitor baseline. The source separately labels eVisa and visa-on-arrival rows, so a bare "Visa is required" row is not recast as either route.
    • Georgia and Panama have separately stated waivers for holders of specified third-country visas. Those conditional document routes are excluded from this passport-only baseline.
    • Mission availability, passport recognition, individual admission, route, transit, work, residence, diplomatic, official, service and other special-document treatment are outside this policy.

    Macao SAR passports: visa-free visitor entry for Grenada, Georgia, North Macedonia and Vanuatu

    Macao DSI's current passport-specific country records directly classify the listed destinations as visa-free.

    • Applies to an ordinary Macao SAR Passport, not a PRC national passport, Hong Kong SAR passport, Macao travel permit, residence document or special passport.
    • The DSI records state maximum stays of 90 days for Grenada and North Macedonia, and 30 days for Georgia and Vanuatu.
    • Work, residence, transit, special documents, carrier checks and final admission remain outside scope.

    Hong Kong SAR ordinary passports: 30-day Georgian tourist waiver

    Georgia's Foreign Ministry directly includes Hong Kong SAR passport holders in its 30-day visa-free tourist rule, corroborated by the HKSAR passport authority.

    • Applies to a Hong Kong SAR passport holder visiting Georgia for tourism for up to 30 days.
    • Work, study, residence, transit, diplomatic, official, service and other document categories remain outside this ordinary short-visitor finding.
    • Entry remains subject to Georgia's border, admissibility, security and public-order rules.

    Georgia MFA live ordinary-passport country results: advance visitor visa

    For each named ordinary passport, Georgia's live MFA eligibility response says a visa is needed and no electronic visa is available. The controlling law places non-electronic visa issuance with the MFA, missions and consular offices abroad.

    • The live country results for Nicaragua, Venezuela, Nauru and the Syrian Arab Republic each return NeedVisa true and CanGetVisa false. The result is used with the application's Ordinary passport selection only.
    • This is the ordinary-passport, short visitor baseline without relying on a separate valid third-country visa or residence-permit exception. The response marks a supporting-document field; any document-conditioned exception is outside this passport-only policy.
    • The law assigns regular visa issuance to the MFA, Georgian diplomatic missions and consular offices abroad; its electronic route is separately issued through the MFA special webpage. The live result expressly denies that electronic route for this cohort.
    • Issuance and entry remain subject to the statutory visa application, refusal, security, public-order, funds, insurance, border and territorial rules.
