How to bring a cat to Georgia and find a vet in Tbilisi (vaccine rules, registration)?

Tbilisi doesn't have a direct equivalent of Russia's state vet clinic (SBBZH), but pets can be registered for free in the national database through Georgia's National Food Agency at their Tbilisi regional office.

Cats need a microchip and rabies vaccination at least 21 days before entry, documented in an international pet passport.

Most standard Russian rabies vaccines (Nobivac, Rabikan) are accepted for import if recorded in the pet passport, but it's worth confirming the specific brand in advance with a local vet or the agency.

For Russian-speaking vet care in Tbilisi, VetCity on Vazha-Pshavela Avenue is commonly recommended, handling cat checkups and travel paperwork.

PetCity near Vake Park is another option mentioned for routine cat checkups with Russian-speaking staff.
