Living in Georgia

The visa is step one. Here is the rest of what it takes to live here — each researched and sourced.

Good to know

  • Apartments are usually rented fully furnished, so you can move in immediately.
  • Strong short- and mid-term market: Airbnb monthly stays plus active local portals and expat Facebook groups make 1-3 month furnished rentals easy to find.
  • Low self-pay prices: a private GP/family-doctor consultation typically runs about 20-60 GEL (roughly 8-25 EUR)
  • Unified national emergency number 112 reaches police, fire/rescue and ambulance and operates 24/7

Watch out for

  • Many listings are managed by agents who may not be the owner; verify ownership via the public real-estate registry and document the apartment's condition (photos/video) before paying.
  • Clarify the agency fee in advance, as some agents try to charge the tenant an extra fee on top of the landlord's commission.
  • The public Universal Healthcare Programme requires registration with a Georgian-issued ID document, so ordinary temporary-stay foreigners and nomads cannot use it and need private or travel health insurance
  • Out-of-pocket payments remain a large share of total health spending (about 48%, higher than the WHO European Region average), with outpatient medicines a key driver
