🗒️Local tips for Ukrainian citizens in Georgia
How to arrive in Georgia
According to the bilateral agreement, Ukrainian citizens can enter Georgia without a visa, only by presenting national ID card. Having a passport is not mandatory.
There is big ambiguity as to what kind of regulation do European countries and/or airlines have at the moment for those Ukrainians without any ID documents. Please find out local information/regulations relevant to traveling without documents or if you need to obtain special permission before leaving the country you are in right now. For this please read Local Tips for your current location.
The majority of Ukrainian citizens are currently leaving Ukraine from the western borders exiting into the European countries. One of the easiest ways to travel to Georgia is to take a fee-free flight offered by WizzAir or to pay for a commercial flight.
WizzAir currently has 100 000 free air tickets on offer for Ukrainian citizens to help them reach their destination. The flight is free of charge in case of presenting a Ukrainian national identification card or passport. If you do not have an ID card, the free ticket offer does not apply and you would need to purchase the ticket. To find out more about the offer please follow the link
There are three International airports in Georgia in Tbilisi, Kutaisi and Batumi. Information on flights and destinations from each of these airports can be obtained from the following websites:
