Georgia

28 October marked the 700th consecutive day of protests. Some of these have led to violent confrontation between police and protesters. In Tbilisi the demonstrations are now mainly focused on the Parliament building on Rustaveli Avenue, but they can spread to other areas, particularly on Saturday evenings/nights and on the anniversaries of significant political events. Demonstrations also take place in other cities and towns. Demonstrations may lead to travel disruption.

Tensions can escalate without warning. You should:

• check local media
• avoid large gatherings and demonstrations
• follow the advice of local authorities

If you participate or engage in political demonstrations, you may face additional questioning on exit or be refused re-entry to Georgia.

If you have unpaid fines, you may be refused exit until these are paid.
