❓ FAQ
No. The «Visa-Free Digital Nomad Stay» is based on Georgia’s generous visa-exemption policy allowing up to 365 days of stay for qualifying nationalities. There is no separate visa application or program.
No official minimum income is required to enter visa-free. However, border officers may ask for proof of funds; $1,500–2,000 monthly is a comfortable and realistic amount for most nomads in Georgia.
Staying more than 183 days in a calendar year usually makes you a Georgian tax resident. Foreign income may then be subject to 20% PIT unless you register as a small-business entrepreneur (1% tax) or use other legal optimizations. Consult a local tax advisor.
Yes. Family members who hold passports from visa-free countries can accompany you for the same 365-day period. No additional family visa is needed.
Most nationalities must leave Georgia and spend time outside (often 90 days) before re-entering for a new 365-day period. Some nationalities have bilateral agreements with different rules — always check the latest information from the Georgian Consulate.
Comprehensive travel or health insurance is not required for entry but is strongly recommended for such a long stay. You can freely change employers or clients as there is no work permit or visa sponsorship involved.
Georgia has some of the fastest and cheapest internet in the region (fiber up to 500–1000 Mbps in cities). Tbilisi has a large, well-established digital nomad community with regular events, co-working spaces like Impact Hub and Fabrika, and Facebook groups.
