Summary

This dossier concerns transferring Georgia to the list of third countries whose nationals are exempt from a visa requirement. The amendments include calls to reject the proposal, require a reliable entry and exit register and a workable return mechanism before visa liberalisation, raise security and migration-control concerns, and note that the visa waiver applies only to holders of biometric passports issued to ICAO standards.
