Do you need parental permission to travel in Georgia with someone else's child (grandchild, neighbor's kid)?

Based on 1 discussion with 2 participants · Last activity: 1 day ago

TL;DR

Yes — on local tours in Georgia, documents are actually checked: you need either a written permission letter from the parent or a notarized statement confirming you know the child and their family.

What the community said

Local (non-touristy) tours around Georgia cost 50-60 GEL per person, but you can only join through connections who already go on these trips.

If you're taking someone else's child (e.g. a neighbor's kid), go to a notary with the parents beforehand to get a notarized statement confirming you know each other — this document is then carried during the trip.

A grandmother traveling with her granddaughter on a local tour only showed a written permission letter from the child's mother — it was actually checked, despite rumors that locals don't bother checking.
