Travel formalities check, dated 31 Oct 2026: Georgia has required health insurance for all foreign visitors since 1 Jan 2026. Coverage must be at least GEL 30,000 for the whole stay, including arrival and departure days, and the policy must be in Georgian or English. Airlines or border staff may ask to see it.
Work rules changed on 1 Mar 2026: a work permit is now required for foreign nationals working in Georgia. Sources differ on remote work. UK FCDO (updated 15 Sep 2026) says this includes working remotely or running a business; an EY remote-work guide (Oct 2026) reads the rules as exempting remote work done only for foreign employers or clients with no Georgian link. Check the current official text before relying on either reading.
