Navigating the Georgian Visa Process

The admission process in Georgia includes a unique step: obtaining a decree from the Ministry of Education and Science. We handle this entire process seamlessly for you.

The Step-by-Step Visa Process

1
Offer Letter: Submit your 10th/12th mark sheets and passport copy. Medical students must submit a valid NEET scorecard to secure an offer letter.
2
Ministry Decree: The university submits your documents to the National Center for Educational Quality Enhancement (EQE) to issue a formal Ministry Decree recognizing your admission.
3
Visa Application: Once the Decree is issued, we apply for your Georgian National Study Visa (D3 Category) either via the e-Visa portal or the local embassy, depending on the current guidelines.
4
Arrival in Georgia: Travel to Tbilisi. The university will assist with your airport pickup and hostel allocation.
5
Temporary Residence Card (TRC): Within the first few weeks of your arrival, you will apply for your TRC, which serves as your legal ID card during your entire study period.

Official Document Checklist

Georgia requires specific documents to be officially Apostilled in India prior to submission for the Ministry Decree and Visa.

Required Admission & Visa Documents

  • Original Passport (Valid for at least 1-2 years)
  • All Academic Transcripts & Certificates (10th, 12th)
  • NEET Scorecard (Mandatory for Indian students applying for MBBS)
  • Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) with Apostille
  • Bank Statement showing latest funds (approx USD 3,000 - 4,000)
  • Passport-sized Photographs (White background)
  • Comprehensive Travel & Health Insurance

Work Rights and Post-Study Pathways

Because medical studies are highly intensive, work rules are structured to ensure students maintain their academic focus.

Part-Time Work Rules: International students holding a valid TRC are generally permitted to work part-time in Georgia. However, due to the rigorous schedule of the 6-year medical degree, universities heavily advise students to focus entirely on their clinical and academic studies.

Post-Study Medical Pathways

Upon graduation, Indian students are awarded an MD degree (equivalent to MBBS). To practice medicine in India, graduates must pass the FMGE / NEXT exam. Additionally, because Georgian degrees are globally recognized, many students use them as a stepping stone to appear for the USMLE (USA) or PLAB (UK) exams for international medical residencies.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is NEET mandatory to study MBBS in Georgia?

Yes. If you are an Indian citizen who intends to return to India to practice medicine after your graduation, the National Medical Commission (NMC) strictly requires you to have qualified the NEET-UG exam before taking admission abroad.

Are the MBBS programs in Georgia taught in English?

Absolutely. The 6-year MD/MBBS programs for international students are taught entirely in English. You will, however, learn the local Georgian language as a subject so you can comfortably interact with local patients during your hospital training.

Is an IELTS or PTE score required?

No. Universities in Georgia and the visa authorities do not require IELTS or PTE scores from Indian students. Admissions are based on your 12th standard marks and NEET qualification.
