How long can US citizens stay in Georgia without a visa?
Up to 360 days without a visa, per the Passport Index snapshot of 12 January 2025. Entry rules change — re-check geoconsul.gov.ge before booking.
Can US citizens extend a stay in Georgia?
Extensions are decided by the consular portal of the MFA of Georgia, not by the entry rule itself, and policies shift without much notice. Check geoconsul.gov.ge for what is currently possible — don't plan around an extension you haven't confirmed.
Do I need an onward ticket to enter Georgia?
Possibly — proof of onward travel is a routine airline and border check that sits outside the visa dataset on this page. Confirm on travel.state.gov and with your carrier before booking a one-way ticket.
What happens if US citizens overstay in Georgia?
Overstaying any permitted stay can mean fines, deportation or future entry bans — the specifics are set by the consular portal of the MFA of Georgia and are not part of this dataset. If you're close to the limit, check geoconsul.gov.ge for exact consequences and options.
