PCR Test in Tbilisi
Many tourists to Georgia have been wondering where to take a PCR test in Tbilisi. Currently all non-vaccinated travelers to Georgia are required to take a PCR test 3 days after arrival, and based on the final destination many airlines will also require a printed, negative PCR test before tourists can board their departing flight.
Although free coronavirus testing in Georgia is available only for those presenting with COVID-19 symptoms and for anyone who has been in contact with an infected person, PCR testing for a fee is available at many clinics. The average price of a test is 50-70 GEL, but expect to pay more for rapid results.
