Moving to Georgia with a dog or cat

Plan entry, housing and onward travel as three separate workflows.

Check your case. Rules can depend on citizenship, status, activity and effective date. Verify changeable facts with an official source.

Before travel

  • Check Georgia’s current veterinary import requirements and your carrier’s rules for the exact route. Microchip, rabies vaccination, health certificate and timing can interact.
  • If Georgia is a stop before the EU or another destination, prepare for the onward destination before leaving home; laboratory recognition and waiting periods may matter.
  • For multiple animals, confirm airline limits, border procedure and housing in writing.

After arrival

  • Ask landlords explicitly about species, size and number of animals, and add permission to the contract.
  • Post #134 remains excluded from the source registry. Active post #135 is retained as a Batumi clinic lead, but prices and laboratory routing must be reconfirmed before use.

Official verification

Use the official authority relevant to your case and confirm the effective date.
