One of the most generous visa regimes in the world

Georgia allows visa-free entry to citizens of roughly 102 countries, including the EU/Schengen area, the UK, the US, Canada, and most Gulf states — a major reason budget carriers like Wizz Air have found Kutaisi such fertile ground for growth.

How long you can stay

Around 95 nationalities — including most of Europe, the US, and Canada — can stay visa-free for up to 365 days within a 540-day period. Other visa-free travelers are generally permitted up to 90 days within a 180-day period.

What this means arriving at Kutaisi

Most travelers landing at Kutaisi simply clear passport control with their passport alone — no pre-arranged visa or entry permit needed for a typical short or even long-term stay, depending on nationality.

Always check your specific case

Visa policy details change and vary meaningfully by nationality — confirm your own country's status on Georgia's official immigration resources before you book, rather than assuming the general rule applies to you.
