So, what are the requirements for Filipino's traveling to Georgia?
Is Georgia visa-free for Filipinos? Did you avail of a 'package tour?' Do I need a re-entry visa from GCC? Do I need to translate my Iqama? These are some of the questions that have been asked to me from some of the travelers that are planning or having an upcoming trip to Georgia.
Hello guys. Welcome to my channel. It's Noel here. Today's video is all about travel tips for Filipinos traveling to Georgia from Saudi Arabia.
However, all the information and travel tips that I'm going to share can be beneficial for Pinoy travelers from GCC countries.
My solo travel to Georgia was a DIY.
I don't have a travel agency, even a package tour entering Georgia. I'll make this simple.
I will mention all the requirements, and I will go back to them one by one for additional info and tips that might help you prepare your travel to this very unusual country.
These are the list of the requirements:
Passport
Re-entry Visa
Residence permit / National ID / Iqama
Forwarding Ticket
Travel Insurance
Confirmed Hotel Booking or Accommodation
Travel Itinerary
Passport. Your Passport must be valid at least six months during your stay in Georgia.
But I saw an inquiry in tripadvisor.com asking if they can still travel Georgia with less than six months of passport validity. According to the reply, it's YES! You can enter Georgia as long as your passport is valid during the duration of your stay. BUT, personally, I suggest have at least 6-month validity of your passport. It's more safe and stressfree.
Re-entry Visa.
It's important to print out your re-entry visa or your visa from wherever GC countries you came from. Aside from your Passport, your re-entry visa is one of the most important documents you should have when traveling to Georgia. You will present this to the immigration and also to the boarding gates in all your connecting flights. Without this document, you are not entitled to the visa-free for Filipinos to Georgia.
It's important to print out your re-entry visa because they preferred the hardcopy than to e-copy.
There was a delay in immigration because I don't have a hardcopy of my re-entry visa.
So remember to print out your re-entry visa to avoid the hassle.
Residence permit, iqama o National ID. This ID is written in Arabic, so the translation is needed for this document. It should have the stamp, seal o sticker. Without it, it will not be accepted in immigration.
Forwarding Ticket / Returning Ticket.
It's your ticket out of Georgia or back to GCC countries. Or your forwarding ticket to your next destination.
The immigration did not ask for my forwarding ticket or a return ticket, but remember to have this with you because it is an essential document. If you're a tourist, without forwarding or returning tickets, you might be denied to enter Georgia.
What rides you can take from the airport to downtown?
Travel Insurance.
It is essential to have travel insurance for safe travel. It's easy to get it. Just visit a travel agency. They can help you with it. It only cost around 100sar or might be cheaper. In my case, I was able to use my BUPA insurance here in Saudi Arabia. It has worldwide coverage, so I was able to use it.
Confirmed Hotel Booking / Accommodation.
Immigration will ask you where you are going to stay, and you should present them the proof.
You must have confirmed hotel booking or accommodation. Else you might be denied entering Georgia.
Travel Itinerary.
A travel itinerary is your travel plan for where you are going and staying. Immigration may ask you about it. So be prepared, print out your travel plan just in case the immigration will ask you to present it.
Now there's something that I would like to clarify about the visa for Filipinos traveling to Georgia.
Are Filipinos required a visa to enter Georgia?
The answer is a big YES!
Filipinos must obtain a visa before entering Georgia.
However, if you are holding a residence visa from any of the GCC countries, you are visa exempted.
You can enter Georgia without a visa for 90 days in any 180-day period! Just present the relevant valid visa or residence permit along with all the travel documents to the border.
How's the immigration in Georgia? Are they strict? Well, my experience was great. It was a very smooth process.
In all of the requirements, I was asked to present only two of them. Aside from that, nothing else has been asked from me except my re-entry visa was not printed out, which caused a short delay.
So remember to print out your re-entry visa before traveling to Georgia.

Paano po ulit kumuha ng Travel Insurance may nabanggit kayo sa Bupa sa online ba kayo nag apply ng travel insurance … dito rin ako sa Saudi?
👏👏👏👏👏
😊
Sir tanong kulang po sa iqama na , translation ano ba yon sir arabic to english? Thankyou sir.
Hi kuya goodevening ... can you help me how i can have a travel visa going georgia from philippines
Hi Mille,. Sorry sa late response. Diko alam eh. Pero isa lang ang pinaka-sure., need mo kumuha ng visa bago pumasok ng Georgia. Yung mga Filipino na may residence visa sa GCC lang ang visa-free to Georgia.
So saan po submit ang mga requirements? Doon nila check na mismo sa airport ng georgia?
anu po requirments from Saudi
Pwedi bang mag apply ng work jan
Sir Yung re-entry visa to gcc po bs where pwd kumuha. Tnx.
Hello po. Were you able find a sim card for internet when you arrive?
Immigration officer ng Saudi ano po mga tinanong sa inyo?
mga magkano ung gastos mo sir lahat
Mas.makamura ba pag Hindi naka tour package?
What if galing pinas to Georgia
Hi Jess, if meron kang GCC residence visa the same lang ang process ng pag enter mo sa Georgia pero kung wala kang GCC residence visa then kailangan mo mag apply ng visa to enter Georgia.
nag travel ako to Georgia during summer and Armenie during winter maganda dun...tapos na discouraged ako pagbalik ko dito sa Saudi kasi parang minaliit ang travel ko ng kasama ko sa work sabi ba naman " uy bat ka dyan nag travel sabi ko kasi free visa mabilis lng" tapos sabi anya...ay oo yang mga bansa na yan ay puntahan ng mga schengen visa denied applicants or di nakakapunta ng European countries....grabe pamimintas ba
In some point tama siya kasi denied ako sa schengen application ko kaya ko na discover ang Georgia at Armenia. Haha So what? I'm thankful na nakarating ako ng Georgia and Armenia . Pakisabe sa kanya kung nagtravel siya para magyabang, eh hindi siya masaya sa buhay niya kaya kahit ganyang bagay napansin niya 😂
Lol, it's bery punny story. You can only travel to Georgia because for the Europe, de-deny ka ng visa. Bery mayabang yung kasama mo. Ang gawin mo, kick them in the bayag 10 times.
So informative! Question tho, Need po ba ipa chamber ang iqama translation? May stamp naman ang translation ko po. My flight is tomorrow and I’m in panic!
Hi sorry sa late reply! Kamusta ang travel?
@@NoelCabulao Nahabol ko ang pagpa chamber nga iqama translation ko po. Mabilis lang naman din. Buti yung flight ko late afternoon pa.
Pagdating sa immigration, iqama card ko ang hinanap. Hindi translation. Haha . Gusto lang siguro nila makita na legit galing ka sa saudi at legit na may iqama kang dala
Chamber? Sorry talaga sa late reply pero di naman chamber. Notarized iqama translation lang. and yes, original iqama una nila hinahanap.. hehe well, how’s your Georgia experience? Anjan kapa?
@@NoelCabulao it’s okay po! Hehe we only spent six nights there.
I had my wedding there too so sobrang busy kami from preparations and everything.
Sayang nga eh kasi di namin na libot ang tourist spots..
Nag rent a car nga lang kami kasi ang tour mahal..
Georgia is very nice with good people around. Sarap bumalik in the future! Nag enjoy naman din kami.
@@glaizagalvezc6759 ohh wow! Congratulations!
Kung nasa Saudi or Georgia ka, is it possible for you to travel to the US or Canada and become TNT? Tutal nasa abroad ka na, why not try.
taenng mindset yan haha
Pauwi po ng pinas pwede ba from georgia o need bumalik pa uae?
clarify ko lng po yun bang residents id must be 3months valid pa if galing ng ksa?
Same concern. Planing to travel within December..
Sir how to apply for re entry visa??
gaano ka po katagal nagstay sa Georgia?
10 days total lang, Stelley.
Sir can I travel to Georgia before ako umuwi ng Pinas. Exit na kasi ako, at balak ko sanang magtravel sa Georgia from Saudi then Georgia to Philippines na? TIA 😊
Pwede, VOA ka as long as meron kang reentry visa to Saudi, Miss @Chi_ann.
Hnd ba visa on arrival if galing ng Pilipinas?
Hindi po. VOA lang if GCC resident ka. Need mo i present ang proof of residency mo sa GCC with notarized translation.
@@NoelCabulao hi. Saan po kayo ng pa english translation ng iqama? Sa HR ng company nyo or sa mga translation establishments lng sa city? At ano yung sa notarize at stamp/seal? Sini ang mag nonotarize/stamp/seal? Yung nag gawa mismo ng english translation or somewhere?
@@jheyblanchet4704 sa mga translation centers at mas maigi kung meron na rin silang notary.
grabe yung descriptions ang haba! hahaha 😂
Sayang ang space lol
Hello po kabayan, maganda ba sa Georgia? May mga job opportunities din ba dun? Thanks in advances sa sagot.
nope same lang ang buhay dito sa pinas, European vibe lang lugar nila. dati arrival visa tayo
@@denillearenga7274 Thanks po.. Ilang days po yong validity nong tourist visa po sa Georgia?
Hi sir , just got my Georgia e-visa. Need pa po ba ng bank statement upon arrival sa immigration nila? Aside from that complete naman po lahat ng requirements ko.
Hi sis panu k naka kuha ng visa go to Georgia
Hi C Travels! Hindi ko sure pero ang bank statement usually hinahanap yan pag nag aapply ka ng visa (any country). Since my visa kana, I think hindi na kailangan. Ang hinahanap lang naman sa immigration ay hotel booking, travel insurance, forwarding ticket at valid reentry visa from KSA or from any GCC countries.
@@NoelCabulao noted po. Thank you so much
What if po kung student visa kuya sa IBSU po pano po maka avail non
Wala po ako idea, Shiela.
Bro, kelangan pa ba re-entry visa kung resident ng GCC countries?
Yes bro. Kasi papanu ka babalik sa GCC country kung wala kang reentry visa? Hehe
@@NoelCabulao hehe.. naguguluhan kasi ako dahil hndi nman kelangan ng re-entry visa kung may residents permit/pataka ka dba?
Hi? po kabayan
Maraming salamat po sa info. Matanong ko lang po kung saan po ba pwede magpa translate ng iqama dito sa Saudi Arabia at magkano po?
@@noemiruthdumaguing85 sa may olaya at meron din sa may sumalaymaniyah. Around 50 to 100sar lang.
@@NoelCabulaopwede po ba ang scanned copy ng translation wala kasi ako mahanap dito sa Al Hassa may nakausap ako kaso Riyadh naman tapos scanned copy na lang daw sa WhatsApp isesend i-aaccept kaya yun
Sir bago lang po na hired husband ko sa Georgia. Ipang days ba bago ma process ang papers jan
Brother the hard copy ıf iqama is must? Or copy of it with translation do the job. I am in turkey trying to go saudi via georgia but i dnt have the hard copy original iqama with me ıt's in saudi with the company.
Waiting for ur mind reply
Just a copy with translation and notarized
Mas.makamura ba pag Hindi naka tour package?
Hmm.. hindi ko po alam eh. Pero parang mas masusulit mo kapag hawak mo ang time mo. Lalo na kung hindi naman limited yung time ng vacation mo. Pero kung limited time mo, walang time for planning. Mas okay ang kumuha ng package tour sa agency.
@@NoelCabulao gumamit ka Po ba Ng internet sim dun? Kasi plan ko na mag DIY total I have like 5days to spend.. Peru pinaka target ko talaga Is yung SNOW SA GUDAURI lng.. plan ko Sana November baka ma move Ng December kasi Wala pa daw snow Ng November..
