Is Georgia a Hague Convention country?
Yes. The Apostille Convention has been in force for Georgia since 14 May 2007, and for the United States since 15 October 1981 — so a U.S. apostille is accepted in Georgia with no embassy step.
The route to Georgia
A Certificate of Citizenship is issued by US Citizenship and Immigration Services, a federal authority, so it is authenticated by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — never by a state office. For Georgia, that apostille is the finish line.
People most often send documents to Georgia for residency and business registration. Receiving offices set their own requirements, so confirm what yours asks for — we’ll help you read it.
