What important documents are issued to a tourist when buying a tour? Documents for the tour

Things to remember when flying abroad

Now it's time for the holidays. in travel agencies and passport offices queues: vouchers are sold out in an instant, new passports are urgently issued ... Everyone knows that if you fly to rest abroad, international airport do not get past the border guards. But not everyone knows what it takes to cross the border without any problems and not ruin your vacation. The KP correspondent talked about all this with the head of the Service border control FSB of Russia at Domodedovo airport.

Everyone is punched through the bases

- Don't you feel sorry for wrapping vacationers right in front of the plane's ladder?

Many, having learned that their departure is being canceled, beg them to let them through,” says Kozyrenko. - Sometimes they even get on their knees. Then they offer money, and then they get offended and call influential acquaintances. As a human being, we feel sorry for them, but we demand only the fulfillment of the law. And it is not always followed. Some try to cross the border using someone else's passport, forge seals, paste photographs... In 2007, 249 such violators were detained.

- Do you immediately determine that you have an intruder in front of you?

Previously, the main help of the border guard was sensitive fingertips and a needle. It was they who checked the citizen's passport. And now any of my employees (their number is a military secret) can determine by touch the number of pages in a Russian passport without even flipping through it. With the same fingers we sometimes check the depth of embossing of seals. Needle - paper and fastening photos and pages to it. There are many subtleties, but today the verification of documents has been accelerated by modern technology. Passport numbers are read automatically. And then the citizen is punched through the computer database of law enforcement agencies and fiscal departments. It covers all wrongdoings.

- Who is the biggest headache for you?

IN last years we identified several pairs of twins who tried to use the same passport. I will not reveal all the methods, but I assure you that such numbers on the border can be quickly calculated even by the ears. Their shape is akin to fingerprints.

Well, the citizens of Ukraine and Moldova, who are taken out organized groups abroad to replenish the market of sex services with them. When departing from Russia, they show their real passports. Already on the plane, pimps collect these passports, tear them up and lower them into the toilet. Russian passports are immediately handed out to the girls, where photographs of future prostitutes are pasted in advance. Girls under 30 from Moldova, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan are not allowed to United Arab Emirates and many other countries. That is why the demand for stolen passports of Russian women will always be. Many prostitutes are trying to return to Russia on these documents. But we don't miss them. Russian women are an exception, the right to return even without a passport is guaranteed by the Russian Constitution.

Don't be rude to the border guard

- And why is it often on arrival at the airport such a terrible crowd?

One of the functions of the border control service is to allow passengers to depart. And you have to take them as far as possible. It happens that 1,500 people fly in at once, and the same amount costs for departure. The plane will not wait for them, so we first work with them. But the passengers themselves, more often the Russians, hinder the work no less. They think they are misunderstood. It happens that they are rude, they block the passages ... Others turn around and make faces at the border guards at passport control. In the passport, all white-skinned, with makeup. And they come back tanned, sometimes with Negro pigtails or plucked eyebrows. The border guard is obliged to check your photo with the original in the passport. Therefore, sometimes he may ask to turn or tilt his head. And in response to get rude. By the way, after such rudeness, our employee has the right to call a police squad. And if this happens even before departure, then, in addition to a fine of 2,000 rubles, you can also lose your seat in the cabin: the aircraft commander has the right to refuse to take an inadequate passenger on board.

If you lost your passport while on holiday...

- People often lose or forget their passports abroad.

Often, our clients completely forget their passports in the backs of the seats in the cabin. We are forced to send our ensign Fyodor Kuznetsov there. This is our legend. He is able to find lost passport citizen in a matter of minutes and in the most unexpected places, for example, in the back of the seat, among the pages of magazines and newspapers.

- And where else do our tourists leave their passports?

Even more often they forget them in hotels. From tourist countries such a Russian, of course, will be released. And we have to ask him to provide a civil passport in order to understand who it is in front of us.

- And where can I get a civil passport - do they leave it at home?

Call home and ask relatives to bring a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation to the airport in advance. This is the simplest, then we will skip it without problems. If this document is not available, you will have to wait until the border guards request your data from the district police department. This is if you find the loss already on the plane. If you missed it abroad - run to the Russian consulate and issue a "certificate of return". On it in the homeland quickly restore the documents.

By the way, many confused people find their passports already at home, in their luggage, and try to travel with them next year. But if, after losing the document, a person declares this to the police, then his passport is already considered invalid.

- Luggage is checked by customs officers, not you?

We also participate in the selective control of passengers' luggage. If we open luggage, the passenger is present at the same time. We often pay attention to the carelessness of tourists. You should not take expensive things into your luggage without packing them in cellophane. When you pack your luggage, don't share your deepest secrets. Loaders who work part-time with thieves have not yet been eradicated at any airport in the world. They can determine by weight and touch what is in your suitcase.

They know what angle to drop it so that it opens. It's hard to keep track of these guys. They can work flawlessly for years, and then steal just one suitcase of valuables.

- Did you have any funny cases during checks?

There are freaks with "passports of the world." The other day, a citizen of Kyrgyzstan flew to Dubai. Accidentally presented a fake passport, and then a real one. But it was already too late. It turned out that he needed a fake one to register real estate in another country. He was detained. Now citizens have become more legally literate, but they do not think about the consequences when they do plastic surgery. They removed a mole, a birthmark on the face, take documents proving this with you on the flight. There are no documents, the border control officer has the right to demand that the photo in the passport be replaced. We have the right to detain until a thorough check. We have the right to ask a woman to wash off her makeup, remove a scarf or jewelry that covers her face. This happens in the presence of our employees in a special room. There are situations when there is a photo of a man in the passport, and in front of you is a typical lady. You take her into the room and think about whom to invite for verification ... after all, the inspector must be of the same sex as the person being tested. The appearance of a transvestite must be identical to the photo in the passport. We don't need to be surprised. After all, we have the right to temporarily refuse to cross the border so that you have time to replace your passport.

ATTENTION!

If you have a heart valve installed, you should have papers from the operation on hand. Otherwise, you will be asked to pass a frame with an electromagnetic field. It can cause a heart rhythm failure, and subsequent overloads in an airplane can cause acute heart failure.

TRICKY QUESTION

Where is the border?

Of course, not here, at the airport, - the colonel smiles. - Many people think that it is enough to cross the red line - and you are abroad. No, here at the airport runway just a border control zone. And we have only one border. You fly it while sitting in an airplane. So at the airport you are always in Russia. And therefore, the border control officer has the right to check your documents even on the ladder when boarding the plane.

BY THE WAY

You will not be allowed out of the country if...

1. You are on the federal wanted list.

2. You are under investigation or suspected of committing a crime. No court decision or sentence has entered into force.

3. Bailiffs are looking for you to collect a fine.

4. Your travel abroad is temporarily restricted because you are admitted to classified information, state secrets, or have signed labor contract, implying a restriction on exit.

When will the documents for the tour be ready and what does it include?

You bought a tour from a travel agency and have already paid for it in full.
Finally the date is coming long-awaited vacation, and you are waiting for a call from the tourism manager about the readiness of documents.

When will the documents for the tour be ready?

When it will be possible to receive documents for the tour depends on several factors:

  • From a travel operator.

Each tour operator sets its own time frame for issuing documents, for example, a well-known tour operator Pegas Tourism allows the agency to print the documents for you approximately 2-4 days before the planned departure. No less popular Coral Travel and tour operator Sunmar , in turn, issue documents for the tour already 1.5-2 weeks before departure (sometimes earlier).

  • From the airline.

Each airline for different time prior to departure begins issuing air tickets. That is, after confirming your tour, theoretically, the tour operator is already ready to issue some of the documents (voucher and medical insurance), however, he is waiting for the airline to open the opportunity for him to print tickets. That is why, in some cases, documents are issued back to back with departure.

  • Charter or regular flight.

This again affects the date of issuance of air tickets for the tour. When booking a tour with a flight regular flight, tickets can usually be printed immediately after payment. Purchasing a tour with a charter flight usually involves receiving documents for the tour a few days before departure.

  • Has the application been paid?

Let's imagine that all the stars have aligned and the tour operator from which your trip is booked opens the issuance of documents in advance. Then the issuance of documents will become possible immediately after the agency pays for the application. It is also important to remember this when purchasing "hot tours" - even if you have a flight tomorrow, the agency will be able to print out the documents for you only after it has paid your booking to the tour operator.

What is included in the package of documents for the tour:

1) Passport or RF passport .

If you purchased a tour abroad, then upon departure, both an adult and a child must have international passport. In this case, Russian passport, it is not necessary to take it with you, because A passport is your full-fledged official document. The Russian passport refers to a national document, carrying some weight only within our homeland.

If you are planning a vacation in the resorts of Russia or neighboring countries, then you will need to have a Russian passport with you for all citizens over 14 years old. Children under the age of 14 must bring their children's birth certificate with them.

2) Birth certificate of the child.

It is extremely important to remember that when traveling with a child abroad, you need to have a birth certificate with you (for all children under 18), as proof that you are taking your child out of Russia. Ask for this document when passing customs control.

3) Visato enter visa countries a pre-arranged visa is required. The procedure and terms for issuing a visa can be found in visa centers your city. If you purchase a ticket, "from" and "to" formed by the tour operator, then the tourism manager informs you in detail about the timing and requirements for documents for a visa.

4) Consent to the departure of the child abroad. This document is important, but its execution is not always required. So, in what cases is it required to issue it?

4.1 For going abroadwith both parents consent is not required for the departure of children.

4.2 If the child travels abroadwith one of the parents, then consent to the departure of the child is not required. The only exception is the situation when the second parent previously received a ban on the departure of the child.

4.3 When a child travels abroad without parents, accompanied by a third party, a consent to this third party.

4.4 There is also the practice ofconsent to "self-exit" when a child flies abroad alone, unaccompanied.

IMPORTANT POINT: consent to the departure of the child is asked to be done if the child goes on vacation with one parent or without parents to apply for a Schengen visa.

5) Voucherthis is a document that contains all the basic information about your tour.

What does the voucher look like?


As we can see, information about tourists appears here, about the dates of their check-in and check-out, type of room, type of food, the name of the host is also indicated here ( Incoming partners ) of the tour operator and its contact details.

What to do with vouchers?

The voucher, as a rule, is issued one for all (per room). It is issued both in one and in triplicate. In its most detailed version, this document consists of several parts: a tourist voucher, a hotel accommodation voucher and a transfer voucher.

The transfer voucher is collected while you are being driven from the airport to your hotel. The voucher for hotel accommodation you give when you check into the hotel. The tourist voucher remains on hand until the end of the trip as proof that you are in the country for tourism purposes.

6) Electronic tickets or Itinerary-receipt of an electronic ticket.

All airline tickets have been looking like a printout for several years. detailed information about your flight on an ordinary white sheet of A4 format. Such air tickets can be printed for you, both by a travel agency, and by yourself on any available printer, having only the file with the electronic ticket itself.

Ordinary electronic ticket looks like this:


At the top is the name of the airline. Below is the last name and first name of the passenger. Even lower is the date of departure, flight number, city and time of departure (air tickets always indicate local time!!), city of arrival, time of arrival (not always), flight class, as well as allowable free transportation baggage. Under this line, additional information about the allowable weight can be placed. hand luggage and about how much the check-in for the flight begins and ends.

E-tickets must be taken on a trip in one copy for each person. No one will pick up the tickets themselves from you, they can only be asked to present them when passing passport control before checking in for a flight.

To check in for a flight, you only need to present your foreign passports at the check-in counter.

7) Medical insurance or Medical policy- a mandatory document as part of the tour package. A medical policy can be issued, both one for all people traveling on a trip, and for each tourist individually.

Below is an example of honey. insurance purchased as part of the tour:


In the upper left corner we see the name of the insurance company. Below and to the right is the reservation number, which may be asked if insurance is activated. When receiving documents for the tour, I recommend checking the correctness of the data of each of the tourists, because if at least one mistake is made, the insurance will not be valid.

Medical insurance from tour operators is found with payment of an unconditional deductible and without. If such is provided by the insurance company of the tour operator for this direction, then you can also find its cost on the first page insurance policy above. In case of occurrence insured event, first of all, it is necessary to activate honey. insurance by calling the number of the 24-hour service center indicated on it.

8) Travel insurance policy - issued in a set along with other documents in the event that it was issued in advance. Its action extends to a specific number of cases and reasons, as a result of which the tourist will not be able to go on the tour he has purchased. In fact, the presence of insurance against non-departure has weight until the day of departure on a trip. After - the need for it to be in your hands simply disappears.

9) Voucher(is not binding document currently!!).

The travel agency is obliged to issue a ticket only if it works without a cash register, reporting to the regulatory authorities on BSO (strict reporting forms). It is the ticket, in this case, that will be the BSO.

If the travel agency, when you purchase a tour, issues a cash receipt, then the ticket is not a mandatory document for issuance.

10) Memo by country- this is a miniature book or printout of an interesting and useful information according to the country where you are going on vacation. In it you will find a story about the traditions and customs local population, about the language in which communication takes place, about shops and souvenirs, excursions within the country, as well as a lot of other useful information.

Summing up the above, I want to note once again that it is extremely important to check the availability of a complete package of documents for the tour before leaving home, because. because of an accidentally left document, a desired vacation trip can be disrupted!

When registering for international flight the passenger is obliged to present a document proving his identity. One of these documents is a foreign passport: both a valid, old-style, and a new one, with an electronic biometric carrier. It is important that the validity of the visa and foreign passport does not expire before the date of the passenger's return flight. The consulates general of a number of countries require that the specified period exceed three months. In addition, if you have an air flight with transfers in different countries, the passenger must also have transit visas with him.

An alternative to a foreign passport can be a diplomatic or service passport. Citizens with diplomatic immunity (State Duma deputies, members of the Government of Russia, diplomats) can fly abroad with a diplomatic passport, and civil servants with a service passport. Seafarers also have their own permits. They can fly abroad with a sailor's passport.

Those citizens who participate in international conferences on the territory of the UN member states have the right to cross the border on the international certificate of the UN. Foreigners, almost permanently residing in our country, can present their national passport when registering for a flight. In addition, there are a number of tolerances for different categories of citizens when they submit documents during a passport and visa check at the airport.

What do you need for air travel abroad for a passenger with a child?

If parents fly abroad with children, then at check-in at the airport, foreign passports of all family members, both adults and minors, are presented. If the child is under 14 years old at the time of departure abroad, then his parents can present their foreign passport, in which the data of the minor are entered and his photo is pasted with the stamp of the relevant passport and visa service.

One should note here important nuance. If information about the child is included in the parents' foreign passport after March 1, 2010, then the minor family member may be prohibited from flying abroad. Under the new legislation, a child is required to have an individual passport when traveling to other countries.

In addition, when registering for an international flight, passport control representatives may require passengers to provide documents proving their relationship with the minor they are accompanying. Therefore, it is advisable to take a birth certificate or document of adoption / guardianship with you.

The procedure for the departure of passengers with children under 14 years of age to the CIS countries has been simplified. When registering at the airport, it is enough to present to the passport control service employees a birth certificate with a stamp or a special insert confirming the citizenship of the Russian Federation of a minor.

In the event that a child flies abroad unaccompanied by his parents, he must have a foreign passport and a document confirming the consent of the mother and father for his departure to another country, certified by a notary public. A similar requirement is put forward by the Schengen countries, Great Britain, and the states of North America.

How is a pet transported abroad?

Flying abroad with a dog or cat is associated with a lot of trouble. Not only does the pet have to be in a special container, but also for its placement on board the airliner in the luggage compartment, you will have to pay from 7 to 12 dollars per kilogram of live weight.

In addition, purebred cats and dogs will have to be taken to one of the organizations that provide services for issuing pet licenses. For dogs, documents are issued by a kennel club, for cats - by a felinological organization. The license must be issued on a special form with the appropriate seals and signatures.

Note. All documents are checked by customs veterinary control airport. So the animal will not be able to “drive a hare”. But the thought of taking your favorite hamster or guinea pig with you on a trip will have to be abandoned. Rodents are not allowed on board the aircraft.

What do pregnant women who want to fly abroad need to know?

Pregnant women are allowed to travel by air if at least seven weeks remain before the date of the expected birth. Moreover, the airline will require from such a passenger exchange card, a medical certificate of health and a signature stating that the air carrier is not responsible for adverse consequences during such a trip. Airlines do not want to risk their reputation and safety on board the aircraft, therefore they are forced to make such stringent requirements for the flight of pregnant women.

The topic seems to be eternal and very confusing. However, we assure you, there is nothing complicated in it. It is worth once to understand and understand the essence, then you can even advise your loved ones about required documents when flying with children.

The main question is whether the flight is domestic or international, in other words, are you flying through the country or flying to another country.

Domestic flights

On domestic flights, you do not cross state border, respectively, do not go through border and customs control.

A child under 12 years of age can fly only with an accompaniment of an adult passenger (that is, an adult or a citizen who legally acquired full legal capacity before the age of majority, hereinafter referred to as the “adult passenger”). The degree of relationship with the child does not matter. On domestic flights, a child can fly with any adult passenger. No permission from parents or anyone else is needed.

Over 12 years old, a child can fly on his own, without any accompaniment.

Required documents:

Regardless of whether the child is flying with or without an escort, when flying, he needs to have an original identity document with him:

  • Child's birth certificate - for children under 14;
  • Internal passport of the Russian Federation - for children over 14 years old;
  • Temporary identity document - if instead of a birth certificate or passport, the child was issued a temporary identity document.

It is important to know! You must check in for the flight and board the aircraft, presenting exactly the document for which the ticket was purchased. It is a common case when, when issuing a ticket, you indicated the data of one document, and you are going to fly, presenting another identity document. In such cases, you need to contact the airline in advance to enter the data of the new document into the ticket. The airline is required to do so.

1. Can I board a plane with a color copy instead of a child's birth certificate?

No you can not! Original required. However, if you have any Emergency, and there is no other way out, try contacting the airline. Because it domestic flight, you do not cross the border, then it is up to the airline to let you on board or not. Perhaps they will go along with you.

2. The child has a foreign passport, is it possible to issue a ticket for a domestic flight, indicating his data?

A foreign passport certifies the identity of a person abroad. Whether it can be used for domestic flights or not is not regulated anywhere. In practice, there are many such cases. If, when booking, the system provides the opportunity to select a passport as a document, then you can choose. For your peace of mind, you can additionally call the airline and clarify. So the answer is rather yes.

3. When buying a ticket, the child was not 14 years old, so the ticket was issued on a birth certificate. But when he leaves, he already has a passport. How to be?

After receiving your passport, you must definitely contact the airline with a request to enter the passport data into the ticket. They are obliged to do so. You need to fly by presenting the child's passport, with a birth certificate you will not be allowed on board.

4. The child is 14 years old, but he has not yet had time to get a passport. Can I fly with a birth certificate?

No you can not. On the day after the birthday, the birth certificate ceases to be a document proving the identity of the child. Within 30 days after turning 14, you must apply for a passport. If you were issued a temporary identity document by the relevant authority prior to receiving your passport, you can issue a ticket for this document and present it at check-in and boarding the aircraft. If you bought a ticket with your birth certificate in advance, and plan to board the plane with a temporary identity document, then, as in the previous example, you should contact the airline in advance with a request to enter the data of the new document into the ticket. The airline is required to do so.

International flights

On international flights everything is much more complicated, since you are crossing the state border of the Russian Federation. You must have not only the documents necessary for registration and boarding the plane, but also the documents for passing the border control.

We note right away that a citizen of the Russian Federation, regardless of age, can go abroad only with a foreign passport. That is, the child must also have a foreign passport. When booking, tickets are issued on the passport. Fly overseas with a birth certificate internal passport or other non-identifying document abroad is not allowed.

Before reaching the age of majority, a citizen of the Russian Federation can fly abroad:

  • When accompanied by at least one of the parents, adoptive parents, guardians or trustees;
  • When accompanied by another person or independently with a notarized consent to his departure from at least one of the parents, adoptive parents, guardians or trustees.

Important! The child can leave only if the other parent (adoptive parent, guardian or custodian) has not declared in advance his disagreement with the child's departure. If there is such a ban, then the issue of departure is decided by the court.

Let us also remind you that it is obligatory to accompany a child during the flight only up to 12 years.


So, we list all the possible options for traveling with a child.

1. One of the parents can fly with a child (no matter how old) abroad. The consent of the other parent is not required for this, even if the parents are divorced. A child cannot go abroad only if the other parent has previously declared his/her disagreement with the child's departure in accordance with the procedure established by law.

Required documents:

  • A document proving your relationship with the child, namely, the birth certificate of the child, where your data is indicated as a parent exactly as they are indicated in your passport;
  • If your data in the child's birth certificate does not match the data in your own passport (for example, you changed your last name), you must also have a document confirming the fact of changing your full name. This often happens when a woman, after giving birth to a child, marries and takes her husband's surname. The child has one surname, and the mother has a different surname. In this case, you need to have a marriage certificate with you, which indicates the fact of a change in surname. In any other cases of change of full name, you must have with you the appropriate document confirming the fact of the change.

2. In the case of adoptive parents, guardians and trustees, the rule is the same. One of the adoptive parents (guardians, custodians) can travel abroad with the child without the consent of the other adoptive parent (guardian, custodian), but only if the other adoptive parent (guardian, custodian) has not legally introduced a travel ban in advance child.

Required documents:

  • Foreign passports for yourself and the child;
  • A document confirming adoption, guardianship or guardianship, in which the full name matches the full name of your passport;
  • As in the previous case, if you changed your full name after adoption (guardianship or guardianship), you must present a document confirming the change in full name;
  • Additionally, it would not hurt to have a child's birth certificate with you.

3. A child can travel abroad accompanied by any other person (grandmother, uncle, just an acquaintance, etc.) only if there is a notarized consent of at least one of the parents (adoptive parents, guardians, trustees) for the child to travel abroad, and only if the other parent (adoptive parent, guardian or custodian) has not previously declared a ban on the departure of the child. Formally, a child crosses the border on his own, but if he is under 12 years old, he has no right to board without an adult.

Required documents:

  • Foreign passport of the child;

4. A child who has reached the age of 12 may fly abroad independently if there is a notarized consent of at least one of the parents (adoptive parents, guardians, trustees) for the child to travel abroad, and only if the other parent (adoptive parent, guardian or custodian) has not been declared a ban on the departure of the child in advance.

Required documents:

  • Foreign passport of the child;
  • Notarized consent of at least one of the parents (adoptive parents, guardians, trustees) to the departure of the child, indicating the date of departure and the state (states) that he/she is going to visit.

Some subtleties and practical examples.

1. The child is not a citizen of the Russian Federation, what documents are needed to leave Russia?

In general cases, you need the same documents with which you entered the Russian Federation. In difficult cases, contact the consular section of the embassy of the country of which the child is a citizen.

2. I am a citizen of Ukraine, and my child is a citizen of the Russian Federation. Do I need to get a passport for him?

A child citizen of the Russian Federation must have a passport to leave the Russian Federation. In addition, you must have documents confirming that you are the parent of the child.

It should be noted that in this article we have only touched upon the procedure for leaving the Russian Federation. But to enter the country you are going to or the country through which you are going to a third country, additional documents (such as visas) may be required.

For adult passengers - passport
For children - birth certificate
For military personnel - military ID

For international flights

Adults must have a passport and visa. The validity of the passport and visa must not expire before the date of the return flight. If the flight includes transfers, transit visas may be required.

Children must be entered in the passport of one of the parents or have their own passport.

For children unaccompanied by their parents, a notarized consent of the parents to travel is required.

For children traveling abroad with one or both parents, border guards may require proof of the relationship between the child and accompanying persons. The only legal document confirming kinship (at present) in the Russian Federation is a birth certificate. The presence of the same surnames of parents and children, and a child entered in a foreign passport, are not proof of kinship.

In this regard, when traveling with children, you must have originals or notarized copies of documents confirming kinship (guardianship, adoption, guardianship):

1. Birth certificate in the presence of the same surnames.

2. Birth certificate and certificates of new marriages with a change of surnames in the presence of different surnames.

3. A document on guardianship, adoption, guardianship in the case of deceased, missing parents or deprived of parental rights.

In the absence of a document confirming the relationship, even if the parents have the same surname and minor child, minor child may be denied exit from the Russian Federation.

When flying to CIS countries

When flying to the CIS countries, an increasing number of countries require a passport. Now a passport is required for flights between Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan. In addition, any trips of citizens of the above states through the territory of other states from this list are also possible only with international passports. An exception is only for citizens of Russia and Belarus, Russia and Kazakhstan, making mutual trips.

For citizens of Russia and Georgia, mutual trips require not only a passport, but also a visa. Currently, Russian citizens can apply for a short-term visa (up to 14 days) at Tbilisi and Kutaisi airports (2 photos and 20 dollars are required for this)
