Georgia entry requirements for Chinese citizens

How long you can stay

Your visa sets how long you can stay.

What you need

• Valid passport (valid at least 3 months beyond the requested visa period, with at least 2 blank pages)
• Georgian e-visa — OR a valid visa/residence permit from a country on Ordinance No. 256's list (see notes) for visa-free entry
• Passport-style photo taken within the last 6 months (e-visa)
• Travel/health insurance
• Proof of accommodation for the whole stay
• Proof of sufficient funds

Good to know

China is not on Georgia's visa-free list; the Georgian National Tourism Administration says only holders of diplomatic or official/service passports from China (and a few other countries) are exempt. Two routes for ordinary passports: (1) the e-visa at evisa.gov.ge for short stays — "20 USD + 2% service fee", and "not less than 5 working days" to decide; validity/stay varies by passport country (the portal cites 120/30 and 180/90 formats), so confirm China's figures in the application; or (2) visa-free entry for 90 calendar days in any 180-day period if you hold a valid visa or residence permit from a country on Ordinance No. 256's list (which includes the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Israel, Ireland, the GCC states and most EU/EEA states) — it must be valid on the day you cross the border. Some secondary sources describe a 30-day visa-free tourist arrangement for Chinese citizens; that was not found on any Georgian government page and is not relied on here.
