Is travel medical insurance checked when entering Georgia, and does it need to cover your full stay if you do not have a return ticket?

TL;DR
Travelers report that immigration may not ask for a return ticket, but it is safer to arrange medical insurance before arrival. A return-flight date does not itself prove insurance validity, and coverage can be renewed or purchased again during your stay.

On one recent entry to Georgia, the traveler was not asked for a return ticket. They did not have one, but they had arranged medical insurance before arrival.

The departure date on a return ticket is not a reliable way to verify insurance duration: a flight can be booked far in the future while the policy has a different coverage period.

If the initial policy expires during your stay, a practical option is to buy new coverage or renew it after entry. For the border crossing itself, it is sensible to have valid insurance on your arrival date.
