The GEL 200 fine extends to all means of transport except microbuses that carry goods through Georgia’s territory under customs control. The payments are done at Georgian banks.

“Goods transportation is duty free if goods are carried from sea port to customs zone at the distance of 10 km or in the opposite direction,” Georgian Ministry of Finance reported.
