Legal disclaimer
Legal Disclaimer
Marry Georgia is a private concierge service in Tbilisi. We are not the Public Service Development Agency, not an embassy, not a law firm and not a translation bureau. The information on this site is general guidance and is not legal advice.
Written so that couples understand what this website is and is not before relying on it. It covers our status, the nature of the information, the decisions we do not make, recognition of the marriage abroad, and the limits of the country-specific guidance.

Who we are
A private service, not an authority
Marry Georgia coordinates document preparation, translation, witnesses, appointments and certificate authentication for foreign couples marrying in Georgia. The marriage is registered by the Public Service Development Agency of the Ministry of Justice of Georgia, a public authority with which we have no affiliation. Apostilles on Georgian certificates are issued by that agency, legalizations for non-Hague countries by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia, and authentication of foreign documents by the authorities of the country that issued them. Embassy attestations are issued by embassies. We have no power to register a marriage, to issue or attest a document, to grant entry to Georgia or to bind any authority.
The information
General guidance, not legal advice
The pages on this site describe the Georgian registration procedure and the document routes of the countries our couples come from, based on published official rules, the Hague Conference status table and our experience with cases. They are general guidance. They are not legal advice on your situation, they do not create a lawyer-client relationship, and they cannot take account of facts we do not know. Rules, fees, forms, opening hours and embassy practices change, sometimes without notice; where this site and an official source differ, the official source is right. Every guide links to the official sources we rely on, and you should check them, or ask the authority, where the consequence of an error for you is serious.
Decisions
What we do not decide
- ✓Whether a marriage is registered: the registrar decides on the documents presented
- ✓Whether a foreign document is accepted, and whether a translation is adequate
- ✓Whether an apostille, legalization or embassy attestation is issued, and when
- ✓Whether you are admitted to Georgia
- ✓Whether a destination country recognises the marriage or accepts the certificate for a visa, sponsorship, registration or any other purpose
- ✓Whether a same-day registration is available on a given day
Recognition abroad
The marriage is Georgian; recognition follows each country's law
A marriage registered in Georgia is valid under Georgian law. Whether and how it is recognised in another country, and what consequences it has there for residence, inheritance, custody, name, tax or religious status, is a matter of that country's law and of the authority applying it. Most countries recognise a civil marriage validly performed abroad after authentication and translation; some apply personal-law rules that treat particular marriages, including some interfaith marriages, differently. Where our guides flag such a risk, we do so from public information and without giving legal advice; a lawyer in that country is the right source for your case. Nothing on this site should be read as a promise that a particular authority will accept a Georgian certificate.
Country guides
The limits of the country-specific pages
The guides for Indian, Pakistani, Filipino, Lebanese, Russian, Ukrainian, British, American, EU and Gulf-based couples describe the documents those countries issue, the authorities that authenticate them and the way the Georgian certificate is used there, as those rules are published and as we have seen them applied. They are not statements of foreign law by a lawyer qualified in that country. Visa rules, apostille authorities, court practice and embassy requirements differ by region within a country and change over time; India's state-level attestation before an MEA apostille, the jurisdiction of the Philippine embassy covering Georgia, and Gulf salary thresholds for sponsorship are examples of details that move. Treat the guides as a map of what to check, and check it.
Timing and prices
No guarantee of timing, availability or price
Statements on this site about same-day registration, two-day plans, apostille turnaround, embassy processing and courier delivery describe what is usual, not what is promised. Registry availability, public holidays, embassy hours, authority backlogs and courier networks are outside our control. Package prices are from-prices and the written quote governs; official fees are set by the authorities that charge them and change without notice. A price seen on this page on one day is not an offer on another.
