Health and Safety in Georgia

Official Recommendations
In France, for both individuals and professionals, the "travel advice" from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding precautions for each country has legal value. A similar online travel advice system exists in several countries:
Health
No vaccinations are mandatory to enter the country, though it is still advisable to be up to date with your "basic vaccinations."
Diseases
Hygiene
Local Healthcare Facilities
Safety
Crime and Delinquency
Crime is relatively low in Georgia, and you can travel without major difficulties (outside the "separatist" zones), while still maintaining a basic level of vigilance, as you would for any trip.
Scams and "Tourist" Harassment
Socio-Political Risks and Terrorism
The country has two "separatist" zones: Abkhazia and South Ossetia, which are not controlled by the Georgian government. Even if the situation may appear calm, the issues are far from resolved, and it is best to avoid venturing into these regions—more for regulatory reasons than safety concerns (at least in Abkhazia). It is also worth noting that under Georgian law, anyone entering these regions from Russia may face criminal prosecution in Georgia.

Foreign Consulates on Site
If you encounter problems while traveling abroad, your country’s consular services can assist you. It is also important to know that if you are a citizen of the European Union and your country is not represented, you can contact any other EU member state’s representation.
