Georgia Tourist Visa Fees for Indians (2026, in Rupees)

Georgia gives Indian tourists three ways in, and each has a different price. The amounts below are as published on the official sources, checked on 15 October 2026, by VFS Global India, Georgia's e-Visa portal and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs consular portal. VFS notes that its rupee figure is set at the current exchange rate and can change without notice. For documents, timelines and the application steps, see our Georgia visa page for Indian travellers.

What does a Georgia tourist visa cost through VFS in rupees?

The sticker visa is issued by the Embassy of Georgia in New Delhi. You fill in the online form on geoconsul.gov.ge, then hand in your documents at one of 14 VFS Global centres. Your bill there has up to three lines.

Two habits keep this cheap. First, every traveller is a separate application, so a family of four pays the service fee four times. Second, upload the scanned VFS payment receipt to geoconsul.gov.ge after paying. The Embassy route needs both the VFS receipt and the online form to line up.

The 14 centres are Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Cochin, Goa, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Jalandhar, Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhi, Puducherry and Pune. Photographs can be clicked at VFS if yours do not meet the 472 x 610 pixel digital standard, but VFS publishes no price for that in the fee table.

How is the Georgia e-Visa priced, and how do you pay?

The e-Visa is applied for on evisa.gov.ge without visiting the Embassy or VFS. Its price is USD 20 plus a 2% service fee. The portal publishes no rupee amount, because the charge goes on your card in dollars.

• Payment method: Visa or MasterCard only.
• Payment window: within 5 hours of the notification asking you to pay.
• Refunds: none. The e-Visa fee is not refunded if the e-Visa is denied.
• Time: not less than 5 working days for a decision.

The e-Visa fee does not cover what the border officer may ask to see. Print the e-Visa and carry your passport, a document proving the purpose of travel, travel and health insurance, proof of funds such as a bank statement for the past three months, and proof of accommodation for the entire stay.

e-Visa or VFS sticker: which costs less for your trip?

On price alone, the e-Visa is the lighter option, because it carries no VFS service fee or courier charge. The sticker route still matters if you cannot pay by Visa or MasterCard or prefer to submit paper documents in person. VFS also gives the short-term processing time as a minimum of 10 calendar days on its long-term tab, so allow for the longer working-day reading.

Do multiple-entry and transit visas cost more?

VFS India publishes a single short-term visa fee of INR 1790 / USD 20 and no separate price for multiple entries. Its transit tab lists the same INR 1790 / USD 20, and Georgia requires a visa for transit as well.

What changes with a multiple-entry visa is eligibility, not the published fee:

• An ordinary single-entry visa allows a stay of up to 30 calendar days.
• An ordinary multiple-entry visa can run up to five years, with a maximum of 90 days in any 180.
• Multiple entries are only for applicants who visited Georgia at least once during the previous year and have grounds for repeat visits.

If this is your first trip to Georgia, plan on a single-entry visa.

Who can visit Georgia without paying any visa fee?

Indians holding a valid visa and/or residence permit listed in Government of Georgia Ordinance No. 256 may enter visa-free for 90 days in any 180-day period. The consular portal lists issuing countries including the USA, the UK, EU and Schengen states, Canada, Australia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Israel, New Zealand and the GCC states.

The visa or permit must be valid on the day you cross the border. If your US visa or UAE residence permit expires during the trip, check the rule for your exact document on geoconsul.gov.ge before relying on it. Without such a document, you need either the e-Visa or the sticker visa before travel, because Georgia offers Indians no visa on arrival.

Which tourist costs are easy to forget?

The checklist from the Embassy of Georgia in India lists items with real costs but no published price:

• Travel and health insurance valid for the whole stay and all over Georgia, covering health-related expenses and death. It is compulsory.
• Proof of accommodation, such as a hotel reservation, rental agreement or invitation confirming accommodation.
• A copy of tickets or a ticket booking. A verifiable reservation meets the 'booking of tickets' wording; avoid paying for a non-refundable ticket before the decision.
• A bank statement for the last three months, stamped and signed by the bank. Georgia does not name ITR, Form 16 or salary slips.
• Minors' papers: consent letters and birth certificates notary attested and apostilled by the MEA, with the apostille within 6 months.

A refusal costs you the fee. You can appeal to Georgia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs within 10 business days of learning of the decision, in Georgian or with a certified Georgian translation, but the money paid does not come back.

Yatra For Fun's India office in Gurugram prepares the travel parts of a Georgia file: flight reservations, hotel bookings, day-by-day itineraries and cover letters. Packages range from INR 1,000 for a flight reservation to INR 3,000 for the full set with a cover letter. Ask on WhatsApp at +91 95230 91018 or via our contact page.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pay the Georgia visa fee by card at VFS?

Yes. VFS Global India's fee notes for the short-term visa list cash or card as payment options. The e-Visa, by contrast, is paid only online by Visa or MasterCard.

Is the Georgia visa fee in rupees fixed for 2026?

No. VFS India shows INR 1790 for the USD 20 fee in October 2026, but states that the rupee amount follows the current exchange rate and may change without notice. The USD 20 figure is the stable reference.

How long does a Georgia tourist visa take after paying?

The e-Visa takes not less than 5 working days. The sticker visa takes a minimum of 10 working days from the day the application is delivered to the Embassy of Georgia, so VFS submission and transport time come on top.

Does every family member pay the VFS service fee?

Yes. VFS India charges its INR 1,500 service fee per application, and each traveller files a separate application. Satellite locations also charge the mandatory INR 846 courier per application.
