Working with Georgia
The British Embassy Tbilisi works with Georgia in a number of different areas. Our work is defined seven key objectives:
Service based objectives:
- to support the work of all other UK government departments in Georgia.
- to meet UK Government obligations to British Nationals living or visiting Georgia (Consular Services)
- to manage migration and combat illegal migration (includes Visa Services)
Policy based objectives:
- to reduce the risk to the UK and its interests from international terrorism, and co-operate with Georgia on counter-terrorism and non-proliferation issues.
- to support progress in the prevention and resolution of conflicts.
- to promote respect for good governance and human rights.
- to manage the geopolitical risks to the UK’s and EU’s energy security in support of open and competitive energy markets.
We utilise a number of tools to deliver our objectives. This includes official contact with the Georgian government, civil society, the media, and other international organisations. We also have a number of active projects, offer scholarships, and support visits to both the UK and Georgia.
