YEREVAN, AUGUST 26, ARMENPRESS. Starting on September 1, Georgia will apply a new visa regime for all foreign citizens. If previously citizens of 118 countries could visit Georgia without a visa, now the list of these countries is reduced to 94.Only citizens of countries with which Georgia has a visa-free regime can visit Georgia without an entry visa. This includes Armenia: Armenian citizens can visit Georgia for 90 days within a 180-day period without an entry visa. This means that there is no visa requirement for working trips, meetings or leisure purposes.

As reports “Armenpress”, the purpose of the Law on the Legal Status of Foreign Citizens and Stateless Persons recently adopted by the Georgian government is to regulate "integration relations" with other countries. 

Those, who will visit Georgia for the purposes of education, work or family reunification, will need to apply for visa to the embassy of their respective country in Georgia, based on which they will then receive a residence permit.
