National ID card renewal in Georgia

Written from published rules on 28 August 2026. Not monitored for changes since. A starting point, not official advice — confirm anything that matters with Public Service Development Agency (სახელმწიფო სერვისების განვითარების სააგენტო).

Renewing a Georgian National ID card involves submitting an application to the Public Service Development Agency. Applicants must provide biometric data and pay a service fee to receive a new card.

Your timing

Most applicants begin the renewal process at least 15 to 30 days before their current card expires. This accounts for variations in service speed, as processing times depend on the specific fee paid for expedited or standard delivery.

Start 30 days ahead

While standard processing can take as little as 10 business days, allowing extra time ensures no disruptions due to administrative delays or peak service periods.

The process

  1. 1Visit a Public Service Hall or Community Center location in person.
  2. 2Present current identification documentation and complete the application form.
  3. 3Have digital photographs and fingerprints taken on-site for biometric verification.
  4. 4Select the preferred processing speed and pay the corresponding service fee.
  5. 5Return to the service location or use the designated delivery method to collect the new ID card once notified.

What to bring

  • Current or expired National ID card
  • Proof of payment for the service fee
  • Legal documents confirming any changes to personal details (if applicable)

Fees vary based on the chosen processing speed (standard versus expedited) and should be confirmed directly through the Public Service Development Agency's official price schedule.

What commonly goes wrong

  • Ensure that any changes in personal information, such as a name change, are supported by official documentation before applying.
  • Check official opening hours for local service centers, as some locations may require appointments during high-demand periods.
  • Verify that the digital photo requirements are met at the time of the appointment to avoid processing delays.
