The Georgian Embassy in Astana says that the citizens of those countries with which Georgia established a visa-free travel, namely EU, NATO and CIS countries, may stay there without a visa for up to 90 days. In case a citizen of Kazakhstan wishes to stay longer, he or she needs to get an emigration visa. Statistically, the number of tourists from Kazakhstan to Georgia grew by 45% in 2014, compared to 39% in 2013. Presently, Air Astana performs direct flights from Almaty to Tbilisi five times a week and from Aktau to Tbilisi - three times a week.
