Georgia
Since 1 January 2026 every foreign tourist entering Georgia must carry health and accident insurance covering the whole stay (minimum 30,000 GEL, ~US$11,000), in Georgian or English, on paper or electronic. Border officers may ask for it on entry by air, land or sea. This changes nothing about who needs a visa — but arriving uninsured can mean being turned away.
