Spain visa for Georgian citizens (2026)

Rules can change: confirm on the official site before you travel. imptbalearic.es is a hotel and travel site; it does not issue visas.

Georgian citizens holding a biometric passport issued in line with ICAO standards do not need a visa for short stays in Spain, including Ibiza, Menorca and Formentera. The stay is limited to 90 days in any 180-day period. A temporary suspension applies to holders of diplomatic, service and official passports from Georgia from 6 March 2026 for 12 months. Check the official EU regulation before travelling.

What the status means in practice

Visa-free entry applies only to short stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen area. This covers tourism, visiting family or friends, and business meetings. The passport must be biometric and comply with ICAO standards. Holders of diplomatic, service or official passports are subject to a temporary visa requirement from 6 March 2026 for 12 months.

The 90-day limit applies to the whole Schengen zone, not just Spain. Days spent in other Schengen countries count towards the total. A new 180-day window starts after each day of stay. Use the EU calculator to track your days. Overstaying can lead to fines or a ban.

Before you travel and at the border

Check your passport is valid for at least three months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area and was issued within the past ten years. The passport must be biometric. Border officers may ask for proof of return or onward travel, accommodation bookings, and sufficient funds for the stay.

Two new EU systems are being introduced: the Entry/Exit System (EES) and the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS). EES will register entry and exit at the external border. ETIAS will require a pre-travel authorisation. Check the official EU website for the current status before you travel.

Arriving on the islands

Ibiza Airport (IBZ) and Menorca Airport (MAH) receive flights from many European cities. Formentera has no airport. To reach Formentera, fly to Ibiza and take a ferry from the port of Eivissa to La Savina. Mallorca is a transit point for connecting flights and ferries; it is not covered by this site.

At the airport, present your biometric passport to the border officer. Have your return ticket and accommodation details ready. The officer may ask about the purpose of your visit and proof of funds. The 90-day limit applies from the first day you enter the Schengen area.

Staying longer, working or studying

The visa-free regime does not allow you to work or study for longer than 90 days. For employment, study, or a stay exceeding 90 days, you need a national visa or a residence permit from Spain. Apply at the Spanish consulate in Georgia before travelling.

Check the official website of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the consulate for the correct application process. Requirements vary by purpose. Do not travel on a visa-free entry if you intend to work or study long-term.
