“On the Coordination Council’s decision, “Green Passport only” admission will apply from December 1 to the following: eateries, restaurants, cafes, and bars (both outdoor and indoor), cinemas, theaters, opera houses, museums, concert halls, entertainment centers, casinos and gambling sites, spa centers, fitness clubs, hotels, and aerial lifts in winter resorts. Said requirement also applies to guests of the listed facilities. In entertainment centers for children, Green Passports are mandatory for all citizens aged over 18.
“On the Prime Minister’s instructions, the immunization campaign will be bolstered, and vaccination promotion activities will be held in every municipality of Georgia.
“The Interagency Coordination Council once again urges citizens to become actively engaged in the process of vaccination, wear facemasks, maintain social distancing, and protect their own and their loved ones’ health,” reads the statement.
COVID Passports can be received at justice houses and service centers. The passport is free and one can get it without booking a visit.
