How many Ukrainian refugees are in Georgia?
Currently, there are about 30,000 refugees in Georgia. Ukrainians can enter Georgia without a visa and stay in the country for a year.
In order to obtain refugee status or humanitarian status, you need to write an application at the border or apply to any other state authority upon entering the country. However, the Department of Migration is the main body responsible for processing the asylum procedure.
State social assistance for Ukrainians in Georgia
Georgia pays financial assistance to Ukrainian families within three months after arrival in the country: 300 GEL per family and an additional 45 GEL for each other family member. Only the social service body can appoint a payment.
We would like to add that only those who crossed the border with Georgia after February 2022 can apply for financial aid.
