Citizens of Thailand can enter Georgia without a visa and stay up to one full year. Bring a passport valid for your whole stay. From 1 January 2026 tourists must also carry health and accident insurance covering the whole stay (minimum GEL 30,000).
Passport and arrival
Visa-free travellers: the passport must be valid on the day you enter and for your whole stay, so it does not expire while you are in Georgia (MFA FAQ). e-Visa applicants: the passport must remain valid at least 3 months beyond the visa's validity, must have been issued within the last 10 years, and must be undamaged with no unofficial notes; the e-Visa FAQ also asks for at least 2 blank pages, which the MFA FAQ says is not needed for e-Visa applications.
Since 1 January 2026 (Law of Georgia 'On Tourism'), every tourist entering Georgia must show a valid health and accident insurance policy, on paper or electronic, in Georgian or English. It can come from a Georgian or a foreign insurer, must cover at least GEL 30,000, and must cover the whole stay including arrival and departure days. The policy must state: the parties to the contract, covered territory, subject matter, start and end dates, insured risks, sum insured (limits), and the premium with place and terms of payment. Exempt: holders of diplomatic and special visas; holders of diplomatic, official, service and special passports; accredited staff of diplomatic missions, consulates and international organisations and their accredited family members; people whose entry is covered by Georgia's international treaties; and international road freight and passenger drivers.
