"@type": "Answer",
"text": "A Georgia Tourist Visa is an official travel document that allows Indian nationals to enter Georgia for tourism, leisure, or recreational purposes. Unlike Schengen countries, Georgia is not part of the Schengen area and has its own independent visa system. The most convenient option for Indian nationals is the Georgia e-Visa, which can be applied for entirely online through the official Georgian e-Visa portal at geoconsul.gov.ge. Notably, Indian passport holders who hold a valid Schengen, US, UK, UAE, Canadian, Australian, or Japanese visa can enter Georgia without a separate Georgian visa for up to 90 days."

"name": "Do Indians need a visa to visit Georgia?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Yes, Indian passport holders generally require a visa to visit Georgia. However, there is an important exception — Indian nationals who hold a valid Schengen, US, UK, UAE, Canadian, Australian, or Japanese visa or residence permit can enter Georgia visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. For all other Indian nationals, a Georgia e-Visa is available and can be applied for entirely online through the official Georgian e-Visa portal. The e-Visa allows a stay of up to 30 days per entry and is valid for 120 days from the date of issue."

"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "The Georgia e-Visa is an electronic travel authorisation issued by the Georgian government that allows Indian nationals to visit Georgia for tourism, visiting friends or family, or short-term activities. The entire application process is completed online through the official Georgian e-Visa portal at geoconsul.gov.ge, with no requirement to visit an embassy or consulate in person. Upon approval, the e-Visa is sent directly to the applicant's email address and must be printed or saved digitally for presentation at the border. The e-Visa allows a stay of up to 30 days and is valid for 120 days from the date of issue."

"@type": "Answer",
"text": "The Georgia e-Visa allows Indian nationals to stay in Georgia for up to 30 days per entry from the date of arrival. The e-Visa itself is valid for 120 days from the date of issue, meaning you must enter Georgia within this validity period. For Indian nationals who qualify for visa-free entry by holding a valid Schengen, US, UK, or other eligible visa, the permitted stay is up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Overstaying your permitted duration is a violation of Georgian immigration regulations and can result in fines or future entry restrictions."

"@type": "Question",
"name": "Is travel insurance mandatory for a Georgia Tourist Visa?",
"acceptedAnswer": {
"@type": "Answer",
"text": "Yes, travel and health insurance is a mandatory requirement for a Georgia Tourist Visa. The policy must cover the entire duration of your stay in Georgia and must include coverage for medical emergencies, hospitalisation, and repatriation costs. It is important to obtain your travel insurance from a recognised provider and ensure that the policy documents clearly state the coverage amount and the validity period. Submitting inadequate or invalid travel insurance is one of the most common reasons for Georgia e-Visa rejections. Always verify the minimum coverage requirements on the official Georgian e-Visa portal before purchasing your policy."
